Center inside can not be used after calling centerCrop

Error message

Center inside can not be used after calling centerCrop

What it means

Thrown by Request.Builder.centerInside() when centerCrop() was already called on the same builder. It is the mirror of the centerCrop() guard: the two scaling strategies are mutually exclusive and Picasso enforces this as soon as the second one is set.

Solutions

1. Pick one strategy per request and remove the other call.
2. Call clearCenterCrop() before centerInside() if the builder legitimately carries a stale flag.
3. Make the crop strategy an explicit parameter of your helper method so both branches can never run.

Example fix

// before
public RequestCreator thumb(String url) {
  return picasso.load(url).resize(100, 100).centerCrop().centerInside();
}

// after
public RequestCreator thumb(String url, boolean crop) {
  RequestCreator c = picasso.load(url).resize(100, 100);
  return crop ? c.centerCrop() : c.centerInside();
}

if (!builderHasCenterCrop) { builder.centerInside(); } // guard shared-builder paths

When it happens

Trigger: Chaining .centerCrop().centerInside(), or calling centerCrop() in shared setup code and centerInside() later on the same builder.

Common situations: Common builder template that applies centerCrop(), then a list item path adds centerInside(); merging code from two examples; conditional logic that adds both branches.
