Question

I am working on a fragment and I want to get the dimension of a layout contained in the xml fragment layout. When I try the code

Answer 1

In onActivityCreated, the view hasn't been measured yet.

So no, you can't get the measurements from there. onGlobalLayout is a good place to do it. Layouts happen directly after measurement.

You can remove your listener afterwards, if you only want to do it once. Note that layouts can change size though (soft keyboards appearing, for example)
