Question

How to do different mirror effects on selected image in android . Actually i tried with flip image but it is not effected much on image .please suggest any library or reference example code is available because im a fresher to android development but i have to do this project.please help me

Answer 1

To give the mirror image effect for an ImageView, simply use the Scale attributes for the Image. An example for this is given.

<ImageView
android:id="@+id/ImageView"
....
android:scaleX="-1"
android:scaleY="-1"
/>

The scaleX value would flip the image horizontally and the scaleY value would flip the image vertically. This attribute works for all other elements too.

Edit

To show both original and mirrored image, place them side by side in an activity/fragment. Then set the mirrored image to Invisible. You could use a button which OnClick would show set the mirrored image to visible. An Example would be something like this:

<ImageView
android:id="@+id/ImageOriginal"
....
android:scaleX="1"
android:scaleY="1"
/>

<ImageView
android:id="@+id/ImageMirrored"
....
android:scaleX="-1"
android:scaleY="=1"
android:visibility="invisible"
/>

Button Listener

ImageView imgmirror=(ImageView)findViewById(R.id.ImageMirrored);
imgmirror.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
