Rotate a buffered image in Java

Question

I am trying to rotate a buffered image in java. Here is the code I am using:

public static BufferedImage rotate(BufferedImage bimg, double angle) {
    int w = bimg.getWidth();
    int h = bimg.getHeight();
    Graphics2D graphic = bimg.createGraphics();
    graphic.rotate(Math.toRadians(angle), w / 2, h / 2);
    graphic.drawImage(bimg, null, 0, 0);
    graphic.dispose();
    return bimg;
}

I have looked a numerous stack overflow questions and answers on this topic and not been able to figure out why the image is chopped up the way it is when I try to rotate it. Here is an example showing a loaded image: loaded image

After I click the rotate button which calls the above function with the buffered image and a 90.0 for the angle: chopped up image

Can someone help me understand what is happening and how to fix it?

Answer 1

As always, the Internet to the rescue. So, this is some code which I hobbled together from other resources/post/blogs which will return a new image which is sized so it will contain the rotated image

public BufferedImage rotateImageByDegrees(BufferedImage img, double angle) {
    double rads = Math.toRadians(angle);
    double sin = Math.abs(Math.sin(rads)), cos = Math.abs(Math.cos(rads));
    int w = img.getWidth();
    int h = img.getHeight();
    int newWidth = (int) Math.floor(w * cos + h * sin);
    int newHeight = (int) Math.floor(h * cos + w * sin);

    BufferedImage rotated = new BufferedImage(newWidth, newHeight, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
    Graphics2D g2d = rotated.createGraphics();
    AffineTransform at = new AffineTransform();
    at.translate((newWidth - w) / 2, (newHeight - h) / 2);

    int x = w / 2;
    int y = h / 2;

    at.rotate(rads, x, y);
    g2d.setTransform(at);
    g2d.drawImage(img, 0, 0, this);
    g2d.setColor(Color.RED);
    g2d.drawRect(0, 0, newWidth - 1, newHeight - 1);
    g2d.dispose();

    return rotated;
}

So, using this PNG:

I can generate something like...
