iOS Question webview scale to fit get small image

[John Woodsmall]

when i open a webview with scale to fit on i get a small image that can be expanded with
fingers.

if not scale to fit...it is too big and will not expand with fingers.

how can i expand the size of the starting image?

(i tried the wkwebview as well...same thing).

I guess that the web page itself is larger than the image. If it is a simple image then it will be simpler to download it with iHttpUtils2 and show it with ImageView.

I would recommend trying some css in the webview to scale the image, there is for example such things:
background: url(greatimage.jpg); background-size: cover; //(or cntain) if you apply this rule for the html or maybe body or the element the image is "in" it should fill the whole view (if the parent element is filling the whole view as well).

i have the path to the image (it is dynamic so i get it from the httputils)
how do i make the source for the imageview that path?

Dim j As HttpJob
j.Initialize("", Me)
j.Download(link here)
Wait For (j) JobDone(j As HttpJob)
If j.Success Then
   ImageView1.Bitmap = j.GetBitmap 'or better j.GetBitmapResize
End If
j.Release
