Get screen width and height in Android

Question

How can I get the screen width and height and use this value in:

@Override protected void onMeasure(int widthSpecId, int heightSpecId) {
    Log.e(TAG, \"onM         


        

Answer 1

Full way to do it, that returns the true resolution:

            WindowManager wm = (WindowManager) context.getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE);
            Point size = new Point();
            wm.getDefaultDisplay().getRealSize(size);
            final int width = size.x, height = size.y;

And since this can change on different orientation, here's a solution (in Kotlin), to get it right no matter the orientation:

/**
 * returns the natural orientation of the device: Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE or Configuration.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT .


 * The result should be consistent no matter the orientation of the device
 */
@JvmStatic
fun getScreenNaturalOrientation(context: Context): Int {
    //based on : http://stackoverflow.com/a/9888357/878126
    val windowManager = context.getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE) as WindowManager
    val config = context.resources.configuration
    val rotation = windowManager.defaultDisplay.rotation
    return if ((rotation == Surface.ROTATION_0 || rotation == Surface.ROTATION_180) && config.orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE || (rotation == Surface.ROTATION_90 || rotation == Surface.ROTATION_270) && config.orientation == Configuration.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT)
        Configuration.ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE
    else
        Configuration.ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT
}

/**
 * returns the natural screen size (in pixels). The result should be consistent no matter the orientation of the device
 */
@JvmStatic
fun getScreenNaturalSize(context: Context): Point {
    val screenNaturalOrientation = getScreenNaturalOrientation(context)
    val wm = context.getSystemService(Context.WINDOW_SERVICE) as WindowManager
    val point = Point()
    wm.defaultDisplay.getRealSize(point)
    val currentOrientation = context.resources.configuration.orientation
    if (currentOrientation == screenNaturalOrientation)
        return point
    else return Point(point.y, point.x)
}
