I can get the image to fit the size i want by setting the height &
width explicitly but this would only look ok on certain sized
screens.  Instead i want to get an image view to fit on say , half the
current screen width and 1/4 of the screens height,  ie so it looks
propotional to the screen size and will look the same on most ,  or
all screen sizes
