There is a new feature in Android 2.3 which lets you specify whether your app supports extra large screens. Quote from the 2.3 release notes:
"Extra Large Screens The platform now supports extra large screen sizes, such as those that might be found on tablet devices. Developers can indicate that their applications are designed to support extra large screen sizes by adding a <supports screens ... android:xlargeScreens="true"> element to their manifest files. Applications can use a new resource qualifier, xlarge, to tag resources that are specific to extra large screens. For details on how to support extra large and other screen sizes, see Supporting Multiple Screens." The system handles the image scaling for you if you place your graphics files in the respective folders (e.g. drawable-hdpi). I don't think that the system scales your graphics to a different size on a 854 screen than on a 800 screen (anyone knows this for sure --> please shout). Personally I'm handling the scaling myself in my code via BitmapFactory.createScaledImage. With that you can be sure your App scales to any screen size, also on non Google supported hardware. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
