[FIXED] How to crop bitmap image from both top and bottom?

Issue

I have my view converted to bitmap image, and I want to cut part from bottom and top. My problem is that I can do one of them, but when I want to do another, it annuls previous work. Here is my code:

bitImage=getBitmapFromView(_root);
                    BitmapFactory.Options bitmapOptions = new BitmapFactory.Options();
                    bitmapOptions.inTargetDensity = 1;
                    bitImage.setDensity(Bitmap.DENSITY_NONE);
                    Bitmap crop=Bitmap.createBitmap(bitImage,0,0,bitImage.getWidth(),((int)(bitImage.getHeight()*0.8)));
                    crop=Bitmap.createBitmap(anything here will annul previous line);
                    crop.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.PNG,100,out); 

And here is the picture, so you can better see what I want to cut (arrows show those parts). Thank you.

Solution

This will cut you Bitmap from top and bottom and takes the center path and the condition if (srcBmp.getWidth() >= srcBmp.getHeight()) tells if width greater than height then it will cut horizontally .

if (srcBmp.getWidth() >= srcBmp.getHeight()){

  dstBmp = Bitmap.createBitmap(
     srcBmp, 
     srcBmp.getWidth()/2 - srcBmp.getHeight()/2,
     0,
     srcBmp.getHeight(), 
     srcBmp.getHeight()
     );

}else{

  dstBmp = Bitmap.createBitmap(
     srcBmp,
     0, 
     srcBmp.getHeight()/2 - srcBmp.getWidth()/2,
     srcBmp.getWidth(),
     srcBmp.getWidth() 
     );
}
