android-icons

I am developing an app using Eclipse IDE Juno and Android SDK. How do I change my app's icon? Rob R. Go into your AndroidManifest.xml file Click on the Application Tab Find the Text Box Labelled "Icon" Then click the "Browse" button at the end of the text box Click the Button Labelled: "Create New Icon..." Create your icon Click Finish Click "Yes to All" if you already have the icon set to something else. Enjoy using a gui rather then messing with an image editor! Hope this helps! In your AndroidManifest.xml file <application android:name="ApplicationClass" android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"

Has the action bar icon size changed in Android 4.2 ? I've had a 120x48px HDPI icon that was rendered perfectly in Android 4.1 and below. It still is. However, on any 4.2 device, it is squelched to fit as 48x48px from what I can see. Or something like that; it's definitely a square. Any ideas ? Thanks ! So, I found an answer, it's kinda hacky but works (TM): The general idea is to listen for the layout changes and apply new bounds to the drawables. This could look like this: public static void updateActionBar(final Activity activity) { if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 17) { try { final View

According to android icon design guidelines ( here , see table #1), developer needs to provide status bar icons of next sizes: Status Bar 24 x 24 px (LDPI) 32 x 32 px (MDPI) 48 x 48 px (HDPI) While my measurements show that status bar always has 25 dp in height and expects icons of 25x25dp. This translates to these sizes: Status Bar 19 x 19 px (LDPI) 25 x 25 px (MDPI) 38 x 38 px (HDPI) Here is how I get those size: 25dp * 0.75 = 18.75 => 19px (LDPI) 25dp * 1 = 25 => 25px (MDPI) 25dp * 1.5 = 37.5 => 38px (HDPI) I have confirmed calculated sizes on several Android phones and on emulators.

I'm implementing a SlidingTabLayout in my android application. What my query is that I'd like to implement icons in my Sliding Tabs instead of texts for navigation. I searched heavily on the internet for any such tutorial or sample but found none. I also searched a previous question on stackoverflow: Over Here - SlidingTabLayout with Icons . It was slightly informative but didn't really help me out. To be clear. I require my tabs to consist of icons only . No text. As I am new to this whole setup, I'd appreciate if you'd post proper code with an explanation. Thank you for your time and effort!

As we know, the correct sized icon: * drawable-ldpi (120 dpi, Low density screen) - 36px x 36px * drawable-mdpi (160 dpi, Medium density screen) - 48px x 48px * drawable-hdpi (240 dpi, High density screen) - 72px x 72px * drawable-xhdpi (320 dpi, Extra-high density screen) - 96px x 96px On Jelly Bean, drawable-xxhdpi can be supported. So what's the correct size icon? MDPI: 48x48 HDPI: 72x72 XHDPI: 96x96 XXHDPI: 144x144 XXXHDPI: 192x192 to create an icon for different densities, you should follow the 2:3:4:6:8 scaling ratio between the five primary densities (medium, high, x-high, xx-high, and
