Is there a backwards compatible way to find out if a view is laid out? View has isLaidOut, but it's API 19. I currently use if(view.getWidth() + view.getHeight() > 0), but it doesn't look like a stable and clean way to do this. I'm aware of OnGlobalLayoutListener, but I want to know if a view is laid out right now.

This also had me stumped for a while.
If you're using the support-v4 libraries, then you can use:
ViewCompat.isLaidOut(View)
Check out the implementation:

The implementation is nearly identical to mine pre-kitkat. `view.getWidth() > 0 && view.getHeight() > 0`. I guess this is the closest I'll get to a solution without using a listener to set a flag. – DariusL Aug 11 '15 at 11:34
