Find view with given x/y coords in android

Question

is it possible to find the View that is displayed at a given absolute x/y pixel coord?

Edit: I found a suitable Solution that works great:

private View f         


        

Answer 1

One 'solution' would be to loop through the parent view's children and check the getLeft() and getTop() coordinates against the X and Y coordinates of your choice. If there is a match, you have your view.

I'd like to hear other alternatives though.

Edit: You'd also have to work out the height/width of the view too in relation to the left and top coordinates given to see if your coordinates are within that range.
