Android getMeasuredHeight returns wrong values !

Question

I\'m trying to determine the real dimension in pixels of some UI elements !

Those elements are inflated from a .xml file and are initialized with dip width and height

Answer 1

view.getViewTreeObserver().addOnGlobalLayoutListener(new OnGlobalLayoutListener() {
 @SuppressLint("NewApi")
 @SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
 @Override
  public void onGlobalLayout() {
   //now we can retrieve the width and height
   int width = view.getWidth();
   int height = view.getHeight();


   //this is an important step not to keep receiving callbacks:
   //we should remove this listener
   //I use the function to remove it based on the api level!

    if(android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.JELLY_BEAN){
        view.getViewTreeObserver().removeOnGlobalLayoutListener(this);
    }else{
        view.getViewTreeObserver().removeGlobalOnLayoutListener(this);
    }
  }
 });
