I want to set a background image into my app. I tried to set my background image in my xml file with android:background(im using a relative layout) but it seems the image was scaled and doesn’t appear to be correct or in its original form.
Let’s take an example if I want to display it on a 480×800 screen and only on portrait mode. Should I also produce a background image with a resolution of 480×800?
Thanks
Yes you should. Keep in mind that there are three different directories to put your drawables in (ldpi, mdpi and hdpi drawables directories) put your background images in the appropriate directory according to pixel density and the app will chose the appropriate one to use according to the device it is run on.
