You're right, setting dimensions through code only takes raw pixel values. You have to multiply the display density; something like this should work:
final float density = getResources().getDisplayMetrics().density; int pxSize = (int)((float)dipSize * density); Or if you're writing your own views, you can use TypedArray.getDimensionPixelSize() to read values as raw pixels. j On Thu, Aug 13, 2009 at 2:29 AM, Atif Gulzar<[email protected]> wrote: > in xml file we can define measuring units along with the values. > > If I want to set some property through code it only takes "int" value.
