You created dimension resources in earlier chapters, so we show only a table (Fig. 5.11) of the dimension resource names and values here. Open dimens.xml
in the res/values
folder to display the resource editor for creating these resources. The spacing
resource is used in the layouts as the spacing between various GUI components, and the answer_size
resource specifies the font size for the answerTextView
. Recall from Section 2.5.3 that font sizes should be specified in scale-independent pixels (sp
) so that fonts in your app can also be scaled by the user’s preferred font size (as specified in the device’s settings).
