FastImage low quality

[egarim]

Hi
Is there a way to improve the quality of the images on the FASTIMAGE component? FastImage works really fast but the quality of the image is very low in comparison with xamarin ImageView.

here are to sample images, take a look to the first image (the image on top)
this is xamarin imageview

Absolutely,

I will expose a property for the android side - iOS side works fine. I’ll get that done this week.

Thanks George

For now though, you can change the quality in 👍

the ImageLoaderCache.cs file..

change line 19, the number 64, bring that up to the min/width height of the images you'll display.. e.g.

            _onlyLoader = new ImageLoader (Android.App.Application.Context, 320, 40);

that will have a massive effect on quality.

I won't have time to improve this on a per use basis just yet; but will in future.

@georgejecook How can we make this work if we have lists with different size images? I have some pages that have one small icon and some pages that have images that take up the entire width.

[georgejecook]

Hmmm. yes - that would be an issue. I've been very honest about this class just wrapping other people's good work. I've never had a need for the use case you have on android (which has a less flexible implementation than iOS) - that uses : https://github.com/jamesmontemagno/monodroidtoolkit

I suggest you ask James his opinion, and then see if you can do a pull request here to fix it. I won't be thinking about this actively until I have a pressing need, so your own initiative is going to be required for a speedy resolution.
