Screen¶
This module changes some environment and configuration variables to match the density / dpi / screensize of a specific device.
To see a list of the available screenid’s, just run:
python main.py -m screen
To simulate a medium-density screen such as the Motorola Droid 2:
python main.py -m screen:droid2
To simulate a high-density screen such as HTC One X, in portrait:
python main.py -m screen:onex,portrait
To simulate the iPad 2 screen:
python main.py -m screen:ipad
If the generated window is too large, you can specify a scale:
python main.py -m screen:note2,portrait,scale=.75
Note that to display your contents correctly on a scaled window you
must consistently use units ‘dp’ and ‘sp’ throughout your app. See
metrics for more details.
