Hi Satya / Dave,
When designing user interfaces one can take into account e.g. designing for medium-density screens (mdpi), or high-density screens (hdpi) and e.g. tablets (xlarge screen size). But you can also design layouts for specific versions e.g. v11. To complicate things further you can combine a lot of these qualifiers into one compound qualifier, for example into something like this ./res/layout-land-large-v11.
The question: What is your experience and advice on designing layouts for various devices and versions. Do you pick a couple of these qualifiers? Which ones and why? Have you ever used a version qualfier and for what other reason than making use of the latest UI widgets?
Thanks again!
Cheers,
Johan
