When i try to get the position where i touch on an imageviewer with this code, the y position of my touch is lower than the y position that getLocationInWindows gives, so there must be something wrong int[] viewCoords = new int[2]; miViewer.getLocationInWindow(viewCoords); int touchX=(int)event.getX(); int touchY=(int)event.getY(); int imageX = touchX - viewCoords[0]; int imageY = touchY - viewCoords[1];
