Positionning a image to the top of screen with ContraintLayout

i looking to align to the top of screen a simple image with ConstraintLayout. I just tried:

  <ImageView
    android:id="@+id/imagecookie"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:src="@drawable/before_cookie"
    app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="parent" />

The pict is positionning in the middle of screen. Any help? Thanks

You're setting the top of your ImageView to the bottom of the parent (ConstraintLayout), you need to set it to the top

EDIT Sample with the whole layout

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout 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"
    android:background="@color/colorPrimary"
    tools:context=".MainActivity">

    <ImageView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:src="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
        app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />

</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>

Result

     android:layout_width="wrap_content"
     android:layout_height="wrap_content"
     android:src="@drawable/suzuki"
     app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
     app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
     app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />
