When the layout editor shows something different from the device,
always trust the device.

While the layout editor runs a part of the Android framework, it uses
java2D to do the final drawing instead of the Android drawing library
(because a lot of it is in native).

The porting of the Android drawing framework on top of Java2D is not
100% finish, so there are some discrepancies
