Remarks
Returns the current display metrics that are in effect for this resource object. The returned object should be treated as read-only.
Note that the reported value may be different than the window this application is interested in.
The best practices is to obtain metrics from WindowManager#getCurrentWindowMetrics() for window bounds. The value obtained from this API may be wrong if Context#getResources() is from non-android.annotation.UiContext. For example, use the DisplayMetrics obtained from Application#getResources() to build android.app.Activity UI elements especially when the android.app.Activity is in the multi-window mode or on the secondary Display. <p/>
