can we use absolute layout for designing. I need to prepare a mock-up demo app for an big application and i don’t have much of time. So i have decided to do it vy setting the screenshot of the page as background and placing the mandatory controls over it using absolute layout. Will it work on the tablets as i am testing with emulators only. hoping for better responses. Thanks.
There’s no reason you physically can’t use
AbsoluteLayoutif that’s what you’re asking. It’s deprecated, but it’s still part of the API. It’s just very unwise to use it for production of software that’s going to be on multiple devices. If it’s just a mock-up for a device or size then go ahead, but keep in mind that the final design will have layouts shifting around slightly if you plan on using it on different sized devices.
