EMULATING DEVICES WITH DIFFERENT SCREEN SIZES
Besides emulating an SD card, you can also emulate devices with different screen sizes. Figure B-15 indicates that the AVD is emulating the WXGA skin, which has a resolution of 1280 × 800 pixels. Note that the LCD density is 160, which means that this screen has a pixel density of 160 pixels per inch.
For each target that you select, a list of skins is available. The Android SDK supports the following screen resolutions:
- QVGA — 240 × 320
- WQVGA400 — 240 × 400
- WQVGA432 — 240 × 432
- HVGA — 320 × 480
- WVGA800 — 480 × 800
- WVGA854 — 480 × 854
- WXGA — 1280 × 800 (only applicable for Android 3.0 targets)
