get size of widget before first draw

["Rolf Schäuble" <rolf_schaeuble web de>]

Hi.
I have to know how big a widget will be before it is drawn the first time. I need this to set its position to 
the middle of the screen. If I ask for its size after creating it, i get some 20x22 size. If I check its size 
after the first draw event, I get a reasonable size. Is there any way to get this before it's drawn, so I can 
set its position without the user being able to see the movement of the widget?

Thank for your time and help
