I have an ImageView with max height and max width both set to 100. The figure below is clearly not a square, but you can use your imagination ;)

Figure 1:

+----------------------------------------------+
¦ ImageView    +--------------+                ¦
¦              ¦              ¦                ¦
¦              ¦ Actual image ¦                ¦
¦              ¦              ¦                ¦
¦              ¦              ¦                ¦
¦              ¦              ¦                ¦
¦              +--------------+                ¦
+----------------------------------------------+

Anyway, If I try to set a BitMap to the ImageView that does not have a ratio of 1:1, the image is positioned like pictured in Figure 1. What I want is for the picture to be placed to the left inside the ImageView like pictured in Figure 2 below.

Figure 2:

+----------------------------------------------+
¦--------------+                               ¦
¦              ¦                               ¦
¦ Actual image ¦                               ¦
¦              ¦                               ¦
¦              ¦                               ¦
¦              ¦                               ¦
¦--------------+                               ¦
+----------------------------------------------+

You can see my ImageView in XML below. maxHeight, maxWidth and adjustViewBounds are set during runtime.

<ImageView android:id="@+id/someImage"
    android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
    android:layout_below="@+id/textName"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:paddingRight="4dp"
    />

This is in a RelativeLayout if it makes any difference.
