how do I use getMeasuredWidth() and getMeasuredHeight? It always returns 0. what is the diffrence between this and getHeight() and getWidth()?

Answer 1

Just got a solution to get height and width of a custom view:

@Override protected void onSizeChanged(int xNew, int yNew, int xOld, int yOld){     super.onSizeChanged(xNew, yNew, xOld, yOld);      viewWidth = xNew;     viewHeight = yNew; } 

Its working in my case.

Answer 2

Don't try to get them inside its constructor. Try Call them in onDraw() method.
