How to correct the scale of the image?

Question

Android

Good afternoon,
There is a Drawer Layout with a List, each element of which has a markup

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:backgroundTint="#000000">

    <ImageView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:id="@+id/imageView"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
        android:src="@drawable/lectures"/>

    <TextView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
        android:text="Large Text"
        android:id="@+id/textView"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
        android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
        android:layout_alignParentEnd="true" />

</RelativeLayout>

The picture is square, but in the process it stretches (shrinks along the vertical axis)
How to deal with this? Thank you!

Answer 1

you have wrap_content image dimensions and android:scaleType

update:
I'm sure they did something wrong, but sometimes when you need a square image of an unknown size (for example, in a list) I use such a class

public class SquaredImageView extends ImageView {
    public SquaredImageView(Context context) {
        super(context);
    }

    public SquaredImageView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
        super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);
        setMeasuredDimension(getMeasuredWidth(), getMeasuredWidth());
    }
}
