Viewpager to fill the rest of the page

Question

I am trying to resize a viewpager to the rest of the page. I have this globallayout listener:

  ViewTreeObserver viewTreeObserver = pager.getViewTreeObserver();
        viewTreeObserver
                .addOnGlobalLayoutListener(new ViewTreeObserver.OnGlobalLayoutListener() {

                    @Override
                    public void onGlobalLayout() {

                        LinearLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(
                                LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
                                LinearLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT);

                        int viewPagerWidth = pager.getWidth();
                        float viewPagerHeight = Constants.screenHeight - findViewById(R.id.view_above_pager).getBottom();
                        Log.i("","viewpager height:" + viewPagerHeight);
                        layoutParams.width = viewPagerWidth;
                        layoutParams.height = (int) viewPagerHeight;

                        pager.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
                        pager.setMinimumHeight((int)viewPagerHeight);
                        pager.getViewTreeObserver()
                                .removeGlobalOnLayoutListener(this);
                        Log.i("","viewpager height2:" + pager.getHeight());
                    }
                });

Apparently the first log, on the viewPagerHeight shows:viewpager height:530.0 BUT the second on the pager shows 0. Why is this happening? Shouldn't it refresh the height?

Try using this util, also try with the onPreDraw

public class UViews {
    /**
     * Calls the listener when the onPreDraw method of the {@link ViewTreeObserver.OnPreDrawListener} is called.
     * This method will handle it so the onPreDraw is only called once and will remove the listener.
     *
     * @param view
     * @param listener
     */
    public static void waitForOnPreDraw(final View view, final IOnPreDawListener listener) {
        if (view == null) {
            return;
        }
        ViewTreeObserver treeObs = view.getViewTreeObserver();
        if (treeObs == null) {
            if (listener != null) {
                listener.onPreDraw(view);
            }
            return;
        }
        treeObs.addOnPreDrawListener(new ViewTreeObserver.OnPreDrawListener() {
            @Override
            public boolean onPreDraw() {
                if (view == null) {
                    if (listener != null) {
                        listener.onPreDraw(null);
                    }
                    return true;
                }
                // IMPORTANT !!! If not removed, it will enter an infinite loop
                ViewTreeObserver treeObs = view.getViewTreeObserver();
                if (treeObs != null && treeObs.isAlive()) {
                    treeObs.removeOnPreDrawListener(this);
                }
                if (listener != null) {
                    listener.onPreDraw(view);
                }
                return true;
            }
        });

    }

    /**

        ViewTreeObserver treeObs = view.getViewTreeObserver();

It was in a ScrollView, and that was my issue. Refactored a bit the design and now it works. I'm not sure but I think ScrollView forces the kids to be wrap content, so then the height of my viewpager could not be set custom.
