How to make the height of a dynamically created TextView exactly 50dp in Android? -

i want make height of dynamically created textview 50dp. tried making dimens.xml file code

<dimen name="imageview_height">50dp</dimen>

and use

int pixels = getresources().getdimensionpixelsize(r.dimen.imageview_height);

and on generated textview use.

textview.setheight(pixels);

however when run it, app crashes , says app name keeps stopping.

you can set this:

textview.setlayoutparams(new layoutparams(width, height));

but there different layoutparams depending on layout type. use layout view in. ex: if view in linearlayout, use linearlayout.layoutparams
