Attributes

Remarks

Sets the content of this ImageView to the specified Uri. Note that you use this method to load images from a local Uri only. <p/> To learn how to display images from a remote Uri see: Handling Bitmaps<p/> <p class="note">This does Bitmap reading and decoding on the UI thread, which can cause a latency hiccup. If that's a concern, consider using #setImageDrawable(Drawable) or #setImageBitmap(android.graphics.Bitmap) and android.graphics.BitmapFactory instead.</p>

<p class="note">On devices running SDK < 24, this method will fail to apply correct density scaling to images loaded from ContentResolver#SCHEME_CONTENT content and ContentResolver#SCHEME_FILE file schemes. Applications running on devices with SDK >= 24 <strong>MUST</strong> specify the targetSdkVersion in their manifest as 24 or above for density scaling to be applied to images loaded from these schemes.</p>
