I am trying to emulate the size of a Galaxy Note screen, which is 1280 * 800 resolution and 285 ppi. But when i try to enter device configuration on Eclipse for Android, I have to enter xdpi and ydpi values (1280 * 800 ?), not ppi ones. I have the possibility to enter the density, but I only have the choice between : X-High Density, High Density, TV Density, Medium Density, and Low Density. I guess I have to choose X-High Density but how to be sure it is equal to 285 PPI ?
Do you know how to find the dpi informations to enter in order to have the same visualization ?
Thanks in advance !
You can compute the xdpi and ydpi
I noticed that the device dimensions are about 3.3″ x 5.8″ so then (xdpi,ydpi)=(242,220)
From this, we can double check whether this results in the given ppi by sqrt(xdpi^2+ydpi^2) or 327 which is, unfortunately, quite far off of the given 285ppi (and I don’t know why right now).
We can scale both xdpi/ydpi with 15% to (210, 190) which results in a ppi of 283.
But again, I would like to understand why this is needed.
But for your purpose, I guess that xdpi,ydpi=(210,190) would be a good match
