title: How to create an ImageView that fills the parent height and displays an Image as big as possible?
body: <p>I have an ImageView that is defined in the following way: </p>
  
  <pre><code> &lt;ImageView
    android:id="@+id/cover_view"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_below="@id/title"
    android:layout_above="@id/divider"
    android:adjustViewBounds="true"
    android:src="@drawable/image_placeholder"
    android:scaleType="fitStart"/&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now after downloading a new bitmap I change the drawable. The image now appears in the top left corner of the ImageView. Is there a way to have the image fill up the whole height that is possible and then adjust the width of the view to enable scaling the image without changing the ascpect ratio? </p>
  
  <p>The image fills up all the space on a standard screen but on a WVGA Resolution the image takes only about half of the actual height of the ImageView.</p>
