The problem, and it may be that I'm misunderstanding how Android handles different screen sizes, is that when trying to incorporate the material found on the "Supporting Multiple Screens" developer doc, it appears to always display in compatibility mode. If one has a custom layout, or a SurfaceView, and wants to build for HVGA, is there a way to have the OS scale everything nicely when used on other sized screens?
Is there a place to define the intended layout or SurfaceView dimensions that are used as the basis for any automatic scaling the OS does (if indeed automatic scaling is possible)? I'm just confused on the process to use and the settings to set. Since all drawing will be custom, similar to a game concept drawing bitmap objects directly, it just seems a little different than if there was a UI with widgets.
