how to find out the coordinates of an item in a gridview Android -

i find out how find coordinates (x,y) of gridview user clicks on based on returned position?

    0 1 2      3 4 5     6 7 8

if use 4 selected item can work out on row 1

 4 / columnlength(3) = 1.3 etc

but whats best way calclate column? or there built in methods can take advantage of?

first need define few things

int numberofcolumns;//should able view int numberofrows = math.ceil(items.count / numberofcolumns);

then can figure out position

int row = math.ceil((position + 1) / numberofcolumns); int column = (row * numberofcolumns) - position;

that should it
