Element.getLayout(element, preCompute) → Element.Layout

Returns an instance of Element.Layout for measuring an element's dimensions.

Note that this method returns a new Element.Layout object each time it's called. If you want to take advantage of measurement caching, retain a reference to one Element.Layout object, rather than calling Element.getLayout whenever you need a measurement. You should call Element.getLayout again only when the values in an existing Element.Layout object have become outdated.

This method can be called either as an instance method or as a generic method. If calling as a generic, pass the instance in as the first argument.
