Crop an image when selected from gallery in android

android

Solution

Yes it's possible to crop image in android by using `com.android.camera.action.CROP`. after picking image url from gallery.you will start Crop Editor as:

Intent intent = new Intent("com.android.camera.action.CROP");  
intent.setClassName("com.android.camera", "com.android.camera.CropImage");  
File file = new File(filePath);  
Uri uri = Uri.fromFile(file);  
intent.setData(uri);  
intent.putExtra("crop", "true");  
intent.putExtra("aspectX", 1);  
intent.putExtra("aspectY", 1);  
intent.putExtra("outputX", 96);  
intent.putExtra("outputY", 96);  
intent.putExtra("noFaceDetection", true);  
intent.putExtra("return-data", true);                                  
startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_CROP_ICON);

When the picture select Activity return will be selected to save the contents.in `onActivityResult`:

Bundle extras = data.getExtras();  
if(extras != null ) {  
    Bitmap photo = extras.getParcelable("data");  
    ByteArrayOutputStream stream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();  
    photo.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 75, stream);  
        // The stream to write to a file or directly using the photo
}
