Thank-you, this makes sense. What is the best way to wait for an activity to be laid out? Should I set a listener (if so which listener), use multi-threading, or another alternative?
The multi-threading option seems redundant to me because the map rendering is occurring in the UI thread and I just want to know when its done rendering hence I just want to setup a listener. yarun On Oct 9, 8:01 pm, "Romain Guy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > This is because at the time code is executed in onCreate(), the first > layout pass hasn't happened yet.
