Use a different layout style on different screens (Android)
I'm having some problems with my single screen layouts not scaling so well, some text popping up from a button, etc.
I thought about a fix, but I need your help.
In my XML, I created:
<style name="styleforS5" parent="android:style/Widget.ImageButton">
<item name="android:background">@null</item>
<item name="android:layout_width">wrap_content</item>
<item name="android:layout_height">wrap_content</item>
<item name="android:layout_weight">1.0</item>
<item name="android:paddingTop">5dp</item>
<item name="android:paddingBottom">5dp</item>
</style>
<style name="samsungTablet" parent="android:style/Widget.ImageButton">
<item name="android:background">@null</item>
<item name="android:layout_width">wrap_content</item>
<item name="android:layout_height">wrap_content</item>
<item name="android:layout_weight">2.0</item>
<item name="android:paddingTop">15dp</item>
<item name="android:paddingBottom">5dp</item>
</style>
Now my question is this: how can I write that if input tablet, it should use the samsungTablet style, and when its s5 it should use stylefors5?
Thanks for the help, Zak

Perhaps the solution should only have one style for both devices, but define it in two specific folders based on the smallest available width (see Multiple Screen Support ):
For smartphones (S5): res / values /styles.xml
<style name="ImageButtonStyle" parent="android:style/Widget.ImageButton">
<item name="android:background">@null</item>
<item name="android:layout_width">wrap_content</item>
<item name="android:layout_height">wrap_content</item>
<item name="android:layout_weight">1.0</item>
<item name="android:paddingTop">5dp</item>
<item name="android:paddingBottom">5dp</item>
</style>
And for Tablet: res / values-sw600dp / styles.xml
<style name="ImageButtonStyle" parent="android:style/Widget.ImageButton">
<item name="android:background">@null</item>
<item name="android:layout_width">wrap_content</item>
<item name="android:layout_height">wrap_content</item>
<item name="android:layout_weight">2.0</item>
<item name="android:paddingTop">15dp</item>
<item name="android:paddingBottom">5dp</item>
</style>
In this folder, Android will choose the "correct" style to use based on the screen size.
