如何在不使用UIImageView的情况下缩小UIImage？

Question

I have UIImage and I want to scale it without setting it into UIImageView. How I can do that ?

Answer 1

As @rckoenes mentioned, UIImage is simply an image object, it does not handle display, which is precisely what UIImageView is for.

For pinch zooming an image, the easiest way is to add a UIImageView as a subview to a UIScrollView .

Answer 2

If what you wanted was to change the size of your UIImage, I answered this here: set size of an image programatically

Simply do this:

// Given a UIImage image and a CGSize newSize:

UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(newSize, NO, 0.0);
[image drawInRect:CGRectMake(0, 0, newSize.width, newSize.height)];
UIImage *newImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

// Your scaled image is now in newImage
