My suggestion is draw to size, manually, outside of the app. Basically, the XML will only rarely do what you want, and it will require some arcane parameter twiddling to even get close to what you want. The stretching/shrinking done by the OS is sketchy at best in my experience. I have personally never had size declaration work either, but I was also using image buttons.
