How do resources work?

Basically, you set up a structure like this for your project:



"resourses" has the common things for all watches, and then the watch specific resource directories have the specifics for that watch. So you put things like layouts or bitmaps specific to the vivoacitive in it's directory, and those for the 230 in that directory...

Yes, the source is common for all watches, but it can use resources that differ by watch. So if you use layouts, that can be different based on the watch.


In the code itself, you can use this like the width/height, as well as things like isTouch to adapt for different devices if you use dc calls and not layouts.

So, it is based on the folder names? it there a reference list for the folder names?

It is based on resource folder names, and you can also hardcode your own custom folders in monkey.jungle (based on devices).

If you want a "definitive" resource for all predefined resource folder names, you can refer to default.jungle in your SDK's bin/ folder.

Great, Thanks.
