How to determine an Android View's size in pixels?

Question

Is there a direct programmatic way to get a fill_parent View's pixel height and width? For instance a view in a grid layout in a tab. Or do I have to get the window size and subtract the static sizes of the views around it?

Answer 1

You can get the views parent by calling myView.getParent() and with getWidth() and getHeight() you get the pixel you need. the documentation is providing more information to this topic http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/View.html
