May be the problem due to calling getLocation() function before the button is load.So Which function i can use to listen or that function which will call my instruction after loading the view. – JithinMechery Jul 02 '14 at 09:05

you should give the system the time to measure/layout the object. View can either register a ViewTreeObserver, or post a runnable on the root layout and retrieve those information when the runnable is executed
