[android-developers] Re: Dialog and Progress Dialog issues on Orientation Change

Hi,
Yes I'm sending the request to server in onCreateDialog(), but its an
AsyncTask.
In onPreExecute() show the progress dialog and onPostExecute() cancel
the progress dialog.

Off late I have another issue in computing textview height, I have
posted this issue on a separate thread also.
The issues is:
How to compute TextView Height before its laid out on screen?

I'm not aware how we can use getPaint().ascent() or descent()
method
for computing height?

Can you please provide an example
