Samsung's multi window support - Screen size

android, multi-window, samsung-mobile, size

Solution

My activity is only compose by a Panel which take the entire space, but the panel.getHeight() or getWidth() return 0.

Try checking later. You are probably checking for this in `onCreate()`, which is too soon AFAIK.

Problem

I'm currently developping my app to be compatible with the samsung multi window feature introduced with the galaxy note 2 and soon the galaxy s3. If you don't know what I'm talking about : (source: androidheadlines.com) If you are interested, here is a link to know how to do it : here My problem is that I need to know the height/width that my app uses. I'm doing this : ``` displaymetrics = new DisplayMetrics(); getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(displaymetrics); heightScreen = displaymetrics.heightPixels; widthScreen = displaymetrics.widthPixels; ``` But this returns the size of the entire screen, not just the part that my app uses. My activity is only compose by a Panel which take the entire space, but the panel.getHeight() or getWidth() return 0. How can I get the real height/width ? Thanks in advance.
