How do I change background image based on device using dc.drawBitmap and not layout.xml

Hello,

I am re-writing a watch face using dc.drawBitmap instead of multiple layouts. The small graphics work very well across multiple devices (which is why I am doing it), however the main background image needs to be re-sized based on the screen resolutions. Other than loading up multiple versions of the same .jpg, is there a more elegant way to accomplish the re-size?

Thanks,

Jeff

You can work with the "scale" or "scaleRelativeTo" property in your drawables.xml in the resources folder of each screen resolution, like:

<bitmap id="x" filename="test.png" scaleRelativeTo="screen" scaleX="100%" scaleY="100%"></bitmap>

Also, if you specify only one of scaleX or scaleY it will preserve aspect ratio, which might be important if it's round.
