Thanks for the comment. I agree. This is the reason why I liked Zsolt Vasvari's code, and I did not change the RelativeSizeSpan to AbsoluteSizeSpan. But you have to remember an absolute size in pixels can get bigger or smaller depending on the displayed screen's density (dpi), meaning AbsoluteSize is no longer absolute when displayed on the old (less dense) cellphone screen and on high resolution Android4 hardware. So I try to use dip (dp) sizes as much as I can, and specifying "absolute" dp size often yields more consistent results.
