Get the co-ordinates of the screen in android application

I am developing an Android applica开发者_C百科tion and I need to handle various touch events.

Consider the following requirements:

• If the user touches on the right side of the screen I want to display next screen.

• If user touches on the left side of the screen I want to display previous screen.

On the whole I have about 25 screens.

How can I get the logical coordinates of the screen and trigger the required event?

You can use this method for getting screen X and Y coordinated:

@Override
    public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
         float xcoordinated =event.getX();
         float ycoordinated =event.getY();
         return super.onTouchEvent(event);
    }

Override public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {

     float x =event.getRawX();
     float y =event.getRawY();
     return super.onTouchEvent(event);
}

Note : getX() and getY(), returns the position(x,y) of touch in relation with the View, getRawX() and getRawY() returns the position ( x,y ) in relation of the screen of your Android phone.
