Scaling an image to max available width, keeping aspect ratio and avoiding ImageView extra space

<ImageView        android:id="@+id/game"        android:layout_width="fill_parent"        android:layout_height="wrap_content"        android:scaleType="centerCrop"        android:adjustViewBounds="true"        android:src="@drawable/ic_game"         />

this works for me. Full width of parent and center crop to keep aspect ratio

It's so simple. Just make the width fill_parent and height wrap_content. Here is the I figured it out.

<ImageView    android:id="@+id/game"    android:layout_width="fill_parent"    android:layout_height="wrap_content"    android:scaleType="centerCrop"    android:adjustViewBounds="true"    android:src="@drawable/ic_game"     />

In my view, this ImageView extra layout is a bug. I had the same thing happen. As a result, text that I wanted to follow the green_square followed the extra layout. So what I did was specify the text relative to the bottom of the screen. That way, the text would go over the extra layout. I admit, it wasn't the best solution, but it looks much better than having a huge space between the green_square and the text.
