Question

Answer 1

The most elegant solution is to extend RelativeLayout class, then you can just override onSizeChanged:

protected void onSizeChanged (int w, int h, int oldw, int oldh)

If you need to know the size just after inflate you can try to measure view manually: so call measure(...) than layout(...) and then getMeasuredWidth()/getMeasuredHeight should return the correct size. But this is more tricky, don't use it if you're not sure how it works.
