My image doesnt seem to fit the complete width even though I have removed all of the padding

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" tools:context=".MainActivity">

<ImageButton
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:id="@+id/titleImageButton"
    android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
    android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
    android:layout_alignParentStart="true"
    android:src="@drawable/main_title"
    android:adjustViewBounds="true"
    android:contentDescription="Signals from Mars"
    android:scaleType="fitXY" />

</RelativeLayout>

This is something I had difficulty in doing aswell, something I just found easier to do was alter the image. By all account it looks like the image should fit but it doesn't and it doesn't seem to stretch.

You added an ImageButton but it should be an ImageView. That may explain the issue you're having.

you need to switch the imageButtom with image View. also you need to add a altercation = function to make your image fit inside the fortitude of the foreground and background of you biological system equation. then i think your problem will be fixed! yourwelcome
