Android Question Height of tab page of TabHost

[knutf]

How can I get the height of a tab page in a TabHost?

The following code:

Sub Process_Globals
    'These global variables will be declared once when the application starts.
    'These variables can be accessed from all modules.
    End Sub

Sub Globals
    'These global variables will be redeclared each time the activity is created.
    'These variables can only be accessed from this module.

    Private TabHost1 As TabHost
    Private Panel1 As Panel
End Sub

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    'Do not forget to load the layout file created with the visual designer. For example:
    TabHost1.Initialize("TabHost1")
    Panel1.Initialize("Panel1")
    TabHost1.AddTab2("Test..",Panel1)
    Activity.AddView(TabHost1,0,0,100%x,100%y)
    Log("Activity.height: " & Activity.Height)
    Log("TabHost1.height: " & TabHost1.Height)
    Log("Panel1.height: " & Panel1.Height)
    End Sub

Sub Activity_Resume
End Sub

Sub Activity_Pause (UserClosed As Boolean)
   
End Sub

Result in following log:

** Activity (main) Create, isFirst = false **
Activity.height: 576
TabHost1.height: 576
Panel1.height: -1
** Activity (main) Resume **

I would like to know the height of the Panel1.

I recommend you to use TabStripViewPager instead of TabHost. It looks and works better.

There is no simple way to find the tabs height. You should create the tabs layout with the designer (use anchors) and add the tabs with AddTab instead of AddTab2.
