How To Crop Image Into Bitmap In Android

April 23, 2012 by blogmeister·0 Comments

My sample code is based on 1 physical image file that contains multiple images with a consistent width and height spanning 13 columns and 4 rows.

You can always change the code based on your image resource file. The point of this article is to show you which classes are needed to crop images and store them in Bitmap objects in Android.

The sample code does this purpose and stores then in an ArrayList.

public static ArrayList<Bitmap> getCroppedImages(Context c) {
  ArrayList<Bitmap> bitmaps = new ArrayList<Bitmap>();
  Bitmap bitmapOrg = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(c.getResources(), R.drawable.image);
  for (int i=0,y=0; i<4; i++,y+=IMAGEHEIGHT) {
    for (int j=0,x=0; j<13; j++,x+=IMAGEWIDTH) {
      Bitmap croppedBitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(bitmapOrg, x, y, IMAGEWIDTH, IMAGEHEIGHT, matrix, true);
      bitmaps.add(croppedBitmap);
    }
  }
  return bitmaps;
}

public static ArrayList<Bitmap> getCroppedImages(Context c) {

ArrayList<Bitmap> bitmaps = new ArrayList<Bitmap>();

Bitmap bitmapOrg = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(c.getResources(), R.drawable.image);

for (int i=0,y=0; i<4; i++,y+=IMAGEHEIGHT) {

for (int j=0,x=0; j<13; j++,x+=IMAGEWIDTH) {

Bitmap croppedBitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(bitmapOrg, x, y, IMAGEWIDTH, IMAGEHEIGHT, matrix, true);

bitmaps.add(croppedBitmap);

}

return bitmaps;

}

Spy Mouse For Android

April 19, 2012 by blogmeister·0 Comments

This game is a cutesy and is easy to play, but not that very easy to clear as you progress to the next world.

Enemies get harder to get through and achievements required to be completed usually looks impossible to me if it is needed that you clear it in just a few seconds. I hate that kind of requirement.

This game features Agent Squeak, a spy mouse, super secret operative serving the needs of mice everywhere. All you need to do is get all the cheese in order to enable the levels’ exit. While each level features different kinds of achievements, getting all of them may require you to play the level again and again.

You simple use your finger to guide Spy Mouse to get all the cheese. Powerups like chili to boost your speed help you evade enemies or run away from them without being caught.

You can even use back doors to go from one place to the other. It is all a matter of using the right strategy to accomplish the achievements and clear the level.

The graphics are cute, crisp and the cats’ character drawings have a physical similarity to Inspector Gadget’s enemy’s cat.

EA did a good job with this game. Although the Android version’s licensing scheme is pretty annoying since I have to enable my WIFI in order for the licensing check to proceed. Otherwise, I could not play the game.

Sneak or be snacked. Catchy phrase, right?
