I've read many posts on the topic of screen width and height, but none that answer the big question that seems to come up again and again.
I have an AbsoluteLayout. I want to place a button in the bottom right corner of the screen. How do I get the size of the viewable area so that I know where the bottom right of the screen is? Things I've tried: * displayMetrics.heightPixels - but then I have to hard code a guess for the status bar size * absoluteLayout.getLayoutParams().height - I've never seen reasonable numbers coming from this (<= 0) * Make the custom view the size of the whole screen, and use the canvas object passed into onDraw(), but this object also shows a height that doesn't take the status bar into consideration. If I draw something at y=479, it is now viewable because it is off the screen.
