Possibly not as happy as it made me :) It really must have saved so much effort on my part. 2009/10/1 Dianne Hackborn > On Thu, Oct 1, 2009 at 3:27 PM, Tom Gibara wrote: > >> So far I've adapted two applications with no code changes whatsoever >> (other than the aforementioned workaround). > >

[android-developers] Re: Image scaling by BitmapFactory.decodeResource()

I realize based on my previous response that yes - I can't say 1.5 and 1.6 are incompatible. I retract that statement. Though I'm struggling to find a simple word to describe the situation. In any case, this is a very minor issue - the support for different densities is * terrific* - and I would mu

[android-developers] Re: Image scaling by BitmapFactory.decodeResource()

Put -v4 at the end of the resource directory to limit it to platform 4 or later. This isn't any different than any other new API -- you need to make sure you don't use it on older versions of the platform or you will break. That just a basic fact of life. On Thu, Oct 1, 2009 at 3:03 PM, Tom Gibar

[android-developers] Re: Image scaling by BitmapFactory.decodeResource()

It's a compatibility issue in this sense: * I have an app currently targeted at 1.5. * I need to target 1.6 to support devices with lower screen densities. * For current users I need to continue supporting 1.5. * My code generates a picture based on bitmaps loaded via BitmapFactory.decodeRe

[android-developers] Re: Image scaling by BitmapFactory.decodeResource()

This isn't a compatibility issue -- 1.5 doesn't know anything about "nodpi" so if you try to use it there you will not get the right result. (I am pretty sure what happens is it sees this as a really high dpi and thus scales it down.) It's just a case of not being able to use newer APIs on an old

[android-developers] Re: Image scaling by BitmapFactory.decodeResource()

As far as I understand from this thread, after changing target SDK to android:targetSdkVersion="4, method BitmapFactory.decodeResource changes behavior and now scales images according to screen dpi. Is that right? I have lots of bitmaps, in standard drawable directory, which are pushed to OpenGL

[android-developers] Re: Image scaling by BitmapFactory.decodeResource()

Even with if one specifies inScaled=false, there's a surprise lurking: 1) Using BitmapFactory.decodeResource(), I load a background bitmap (which I don't want scaled), create a mutable copy of it and wrap it with a canvas. 2) Using Bitmap.create() I create a bitmap (into which I render a flower) 3)

[android-developers] Re: Image scaling by BitmapFactory.decodeResource()

I just published a simple class for dealing with this minor compatibility issue; it seems to be working well for my application and it might be useful for anyone else in the same situation. http://blog.tomgibara.com/post/190539066/android-unscaled-bitmaps Tom.

[android-developers] Re: Image scaling by BitmapFactory.decodeResource()

Hmm, interesting... Just had a chance to try this out on 1.5. If I move my bitmaps into a drawable-nodpi directory then the application compiles and executes, but I don't see the images. Inspection with the debugger (plus logging just to make sure) indicates that the bitmaps, when loaded from "nod

[android-developers] Re: Image scaling by BitmapFactory.decodeResource()

Give it a try, 1.5 already had all the scaling code based on display's density. I don't know about nodpi specifically but it's worth the try. On Thu, Sep 17, 2009 at 11:46 AM, Tom Gibara wrote: > Duh, I misread the docs for the inScaled flag. Thanks for pointing that out. > The drawable-nodpi/ s

[android-developers] Re: Image scaling by BitmapFactory.decodeResource()

Duh, I misread the docs for the inScaled flag. Thanks for pointing that out. The drawable-nodpi/ sounds perfect, but I'm guessing I can't use that and remain compatible with API 3, since I don't see "nodpi" listed the documentation for resources in 1.5. Tom. 2009/9/17 Romain Guy > > > private B
