I'm sorry, I really don't know what you're trying to point me to. I have thoroughly read the docs for the class android.view.View. Is that what you're referring to when you say "View docs on layout" or do you mean a different document? I am afraid that while that documentation is clearly thorough, it is not necessarily unambiguous, as I still don't understand how to ask a view what its width is.
Sorry for the trouble. Am I supposed to be reading some other documentation? Thanks.
