There is a curious thing I noticed about the ADT tooling this week when using the New Android XML File feature. It allows you to select any number of resource qualifiers and will conveniently create the folder for that configuration, which is great. But I noticed that it has a qualifier for "Dimension", which when added to your chosen qualifiers, asks you for two numbers (width and height, presumably). The numbers you enter get placed into your folder name like this:
layout-large-WxH Where W and H are width and height. Or they could be reversed, I don't know. The point is that this kind of resource qualifier is documented NOWHERE as far as I can tell. ADT is the only thing that apparently understands this. And to be honest, I haven't tested to see if it works on a real device, but I'm skeptical that it would work. The context for all this is that I'm trying to target the upcoming Galaxy Note screen. It's unique in that it's a "large" screen that is also "xhdpi" at 1280x800. My large layouts are meant for tablets, but the Galaxy Note just isn't wide enough in portrait to do what we do on real tablets. In fact, it probably shouldn't even be classified as "large" given its effective width in dp. And since the Galaxy Note doesn't target Android 3.2 so we can't use the new min width and height qualifiers. So I'd love to target just 1280x800 if possible to work around this one device for now.
