How to center the image in CardView

I cannot get the image in the center of desktop. The image is alway on the left side. It is LinearLayout I some ScrollView. 

        <android.support.v7.widget.CardView
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            app:cardCornerRadius="80dp"
            app:cardElevation="10dp"
            android:gravity="center"
            android:orientation="vertical">

            <ImageView
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:src="@drawable/titelbild280x280"
                android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
                android:layout_centerVertical="true"/>

        </android.support.v7.widget.CardView>

The easiest way that worked for me was using relative layout inside my cardView and then using the android:layout_centerInParent="true". This works perfectly when the width and height of the of the relative layout are match parent (Parent being the cardView).

Please try following code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:context=".MainActivity"
    android:gravity="center">

    <android.support.v7.widget.CardView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        app:cardCornerRadius="10dp"
        app:cardElevation="10dp"
        android:orientation="vertical">
            <ImageView
                android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:src="@drawable/titelbild280x280"
                android:layout_gravity="center"/>
    </android.support.v7.widget.CardView>

</LinearLayout>

You have to use a layout (ConstraintLayout or RelativeLayout or LinearLayout) for managing multiple view in card view Currently android UI system deeply coupled with ConstraintLayout for handling complex layout and making it easily, so following codes maybe help to you

<android.support.v7.widget.CardView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    app:cardCornerRadius="80dp"
    app:cardElevation="10dp"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:orientation="vertical">

    <android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">

        <ImageView
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:src="@drawable/titelbild280x280"
            app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
            app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
            app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
            app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"/>

    </android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>

</android.support.v7.widget.CardView>

Thanks.

Simply try this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.cardview.widget.CardView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    tools:context=".MainActivity">

    <ImageView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:adjustViewBounds="true"
        android:src="@drawable/some_img" />

</androidx.cardview.widget.CardView>

CardView is an extension of FrameLayout. So you should use the same layout values as you would in a FrameLayout.
To center a child view you use:

android:layout_gravity="center"

So your layout becomes:

    <android.support.v7.widget.CardView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        app:cardCornerRadius="80dp"
        app:cardElevation="10dp"
        android:orientation="vertical">

        <ImageView
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_gravity="center"
            android:src="@drawable/titelbild280x280"
            />

    </android.support.v7.widget.CardView>

However, note that the CardView in this example uses wrap_content, so it will firmly wrap the image and there will be nothing left to center. For the gravity to have effect the CardView has to be larger than the ImageView.
