The documentation seems to imply you can't do localization AND resolution targetting.
Can anyone tell me how you can go about localizing drawable-nodpi?
Eclipse returns an invalid resource directory name error.
I'm targeting Android 2.2 only so if there are more recent ways to solve this, would be great to hear about them.

I don't mean how do you localize ... I mean, how did you get translation done (paid, bartered, online translator, ...)? Did you notice an impact on downloads?
My open source Android application has internationalization done the Android way, with strings.xml files.
The community has many people from many countries, and they are willing to contribute/improve translations using a collaborative website.
There is Launchpad but it only supports the gettext format so we would have to use scripts, not very convenient.
There is Crowdin but somehow this website seems dead, nearly no projects, and the download links do not work. Actually we started using Crowdin but all download links fail to give any strings.xml file back, see here.
What website is convenient for translating open source Android applications?
I am running my application in the emulator using a high density skin (like WVGA800). However the ressources in my application are loaded from the drawable- mdpi folder instead of drawable-hdpi ... what else should I do so that android use the correct folder ?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an application where it displays a list of items in ListView. These items(strings) are coming from the server which are stored in English language. I want to display these English characters in Chinese language in my application. Is it default if the user selects Chinese Lang for their device or should i have to do something else.. I know how to localize images, strings that are stored in resources, but i want to localize the strings coming from internet that are stored in a single language in database.
EDIT:
If the administrator enters the data to the database in chinese language, will it be displayed in Chinese in my ListView?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am new application development. I am using Eclipse for making applications. When trying to create new project using Eclipse It is not creating simple res/drawable/ instead its creating three drawable folder. i.e. 1] drawable-hdpi 2] drawable-ldpi, 3]drawable-mdpi What is this all three for? General scenario as per Google it needs res/drawable/ to save icon image. Now on Eclise where to save icons? On all folder or?
View 4 Replies View RelatedAccording to official documentation Google says that "Once you've defined your Drawable in XML, save the file in the res/drawable/ directory of your project." is the way to add a XML drawable to the project. But when I created the project ADT created 3 different drawable folders for mdpi, hdpi, and ldpi. So when I wanted to create my XML drawable, I right click on my drawable-hdpi folder and select "Add new Android XML file", and there I have to select what kind of XML file I want to create, but there isn't "drawable" to select. If I create new text file and save it as button_drawable.xml Eclipse says that there is an Error in the file and that It can't build my project.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to convert a Canvas to Drawable?I may be really off in my solution, so if you have a better suggestion, please do tell me. This is what I'm trying to do.I'm trying to create a custom RadioButton. to set different states of the radio button, I need to use this parameter and one of the parameter to addState is Drawable. I know I can easily provide an image file and use it as a Drawable, but I want to do some image manipulation to the image before using it.There is a tutorial in ApiDemo called AlphaBitmap. It uses the onDraw method of a View to change a PNG file to full red and draw something with a gradient. So I customized it to shade an icon with gradient. So the problem now is that this is a View, and the View works perfectly fine if I add this View to the main view. But i want to convert this View to Drawable so I can use it as one of the parameter in addState. What I really want to achieve is to have different colour shades for different state of the RadioButton without providing different images to do so.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have built android 2.1 on freescale's i.MX platform. But after running Gallery3D, it will crash with the log of failed to load resource. I found that the whole drawable-hdpi/ (it really contains in the Gallery3D source code res/) is not in the apk package, and cause lack of drawable-hdpi/icon_cancel.png. The apk only contains drawable-mdpi/ and drawable/. My question is why the drawable-hdpi/ resource is dropped when building apk? Per my understanding is that, which drawable-* resource loading is determined on runtime, and all the drawable-* should be in the apk package.
View 7 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to detect whether a image was pulled from the folder res/drawable or res/drawable-hdpi?I am trying to save space and have a program that is using some hdpi bitmaps and some mdpi bitmaps. When an image is placed in drawable-hdpi it automatically replaces the mdpi version. I need to know when this happens beacuseI am using bitamp.resize() to fix the image sizes.The problem is that the getDensity() method (in the if statment after the && ) returns the screen density and I need the original bitmap density. This allays matched the screenDPI and returns false. I have a lot of artwork and do not want to duplicate everything for every size screen. I am trying to just create hdpi bitmaps for the ones that don't look good when re-sized.

The Notification API allows to set a drawable resource id for the icon of a notification. This drawable resource id is used to put the icon in the status bar and in the expanded window shade.This is a limitation if the icon images are to be represented by a Drawable or from a content provider at runtime. I propose that the Notification class adds fields (or methods) that would allow to set a Drawable or an Uri for the notification icon. This Drawable or Uri would then be used by the system notification service to put the icon in the status bar and in the expanded window shade.

I have some image names stored in a database, but the images themselves are in the /res/drawable folder of the application. I need to assign these images to some views at runtime, and I'm currently doing it this way:
// public static final String DRAWABLES_PATH = ":drawable/";
int resId = getResources().getIdentifier(packageName+DRAWABLES_PATH +imageName,null,null); mButtonX.setBackgroundResource(resId); //
Is there a more efficient way to do it? Or should I be storing the images directly in the database (they are many)?
Android framework has variety of icons and images - accessible as R.drawable.* - that can be used by applications for common tasks. Their names give some hint about what they are, but in many cases that's not sufficient. One has to use trial-n-error to find the right icon that fits one's purpose.
My question: Is there a way where I can preview all these images in one place, so that I can quickly decide which ones to use? I have looked inside android source code, but couldn't locate the root of these drawables.
I am doing an app related to football. I have a list view that will have various rows representing teams. In my custom array adapter I want to write some code that will present an icon for the team represented by the row. I have a drawable resource for each team (for instance for Indianapolis, Ind.png). In my code I can't refer to "R.drawable. Ind" because the Ind part is dynamic. That value would be in an array, like TeamArray[position]. As I expected, I certainly can't use R.drawable.TeamArray[position] because it won't even compile, it expects a literal name from the drawable folder. Is there a way to do this?
