    <p>I have a class called FractalView that extends ImageView. My goal is to draw a fractal with this class that has the size of the whole screen. It is the only View in my activity's layout file, other than the top-level LinearLayout:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:background="#FFFFFFFF"&gt; &lt;com.antonc.fractal_wallpaper.FractalView android:id="@+id/fractal" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:visibility="gone"/&gt; &lt;/LinearLayout&gt; </code></pre> <p>As you can see, I'm using "match_parent" for both layout_width and layout_height of both the FractalView and the LinearLayout. At this point I assumed that the size of the FractalView is set to a certain value, since it's matching it's parent, which is matching it's parent(which is the whole screen). Then I try to detect the size that is available to FractalView by using getWidth() and getHeight():</p> <pre><code>public class FractalView extends ImageView { private Context mContext; private Handler mHandler; private int mScrWidth; private int mScrHeight; public FractalView(Context context) { super(context); mContext = context; init(); } private void init() { mScrWidth = getWidth(); mScrHeight = getHeight(); // Breakpoint } @Override protected void onDraw(Canvas canvas) { [...] } } </code></pre> <p>But when my code reaches the breakpoint, the debugger shows that mScrWidth and mScrHeight are zero. I've tried using getMeasuredWidth() and getMaxWidth(), but they also return incorrect values. I've read several answers to similar questions, i.e. <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/3594216/1204377">this one</a> and they all explain that getWidth() returns the size of an image <em>after</em> it has been drawn, while what I actually need is the width of the area which is available to this view, <em>before</em> I start drawing.</p> <p>Is there a way to retrieve such values for width and height?</p>

    2. COSince you are willing to use the whole screen, you can take a look at getting the device width and height (this is not adviceable). If getMeasuredWidth() is returning the wrong value you should wait until its get meaured and call that function again. e.g. call that function in another Activity lifecycle method (e.g. onResume instead of onCreate), hope this helps

    3. COThe other thing you can do, since you are using an ImageView, is to override setImageBitmap().

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
