The docs refer to the following: onAppWidgetOptionsChanged()
This is called when the widget is first placed and any time the widget is resized. You can use this callback to show or hide content based on the widget's size ranges. You get the size ranges by calling getAppWidgetOptions(), which returns a Bundle that includes the following: •OPTION_APPWIDGET_MIN_WIDTH—Contains the lower bound on the current width, in dp units, of a widget instance. •OPTION_APPWIDGET_MIN_HEIGHT—Contains the lower bound on the current height, in dp units, of a widget instance. •OPTION_APPWIDGET_MAX_WIDTH—Contains the upper bound on the current width, in dp units, of a widget instance. •OPTION_APPWIDGET_MAX_HEIGHT—Contains the upper bound on the current width, in dp units, of a widget instance. Can anyone explain what these ranges actually mean, and why there is a range at all, as opposed to the actual resized values. Because if I look at the values after a resize and compare it to the screen area covered by the widget, the results seem very strange. The actual widget width in pixels corresponds to OPTION_APPWIDGET_MIN_WIDTH * screen density. The actual widget width in pixels corresponds to OPTION_APPWIDGET_MAX_HEIGHT * screen density. Yep, you read that right, the MIN width, but the MAX height!? I want to work out the general size and aspect ratio of the resized widget so I can adjust the layout, as recommended by the docs, but just getting the widget size seems unnecessarily opaque. Does anyone know? Thanks James -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
