Just wanted to give a bit more info I also have a layout.xml file in the default "layout" directory.
In my code the main activity uses this line: setContentView(R.layout.main); If I delete the layout.xml from the default layout directory I get a force close on startup. So does this line of code interfere with android's layout loading or something , overriding it? -niko On Sep 14, 9:40 pm, niko20 <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I'm trying to understand the layout engine for different screen sizes > and densities, to look into adding support for tablets in my apps. > > I was under the impression that you could also have different layouts > based on screen density as well in android, and it would select the > appropriate one. > > I have the following: > > a layout-normal-mdpi directory with a layout.xml file. > a layout-normal-hdpi directory with a layout xml file with a different > layout for high density screens. > > In my application manifest I have min SDK as 3, target SDK as 5.
