ontouchlistener - Comparing MotionEvent.getX() with screen width in Android -

i've created ontouchlistener motion events in activity, , want find happen relative screen.

i can use event.getrawx() find x co-ordinate, , windowmanager.getdefaultdisplay().getmetrics(new displaymetrics()) or ...getsize(new point()) display dimensions.

the problem i'm having display dimensions consistently reporting width 1080, motionevents receive return numbers greater 1800 getrawx().

using deprecated display.getwidth() returns close, around 1700 - lower what's reported @ right edge of screen.

i assume motion events use different co-ordinate system display metrics - how can convert between two?

cheers

so, have answer. down own stupidity.

what forgot mention viewing screen in landscape mode. using v.getwidth(), rather display dimension, returns 1920, makes more sense.

so (with hindsight) view width takes account orientation, display width doesn't - i've been reading portrait width (1080) rather landscape width/portrait height (1920).

goodness knows display.getwidth() returning...

thanks read , thought this, , mihriban reformatting it.
