In my android project, I have a folder called layout to store all xml files for layout, but there is also a folder inside called layout_settings

layout—->layout_settings—>about.xml

In my code
I have setContentView(R.XX.about). How do I set it such that reflect the about.xml inside layout_settings folder.

The reason I am doing is I don’t want to scatter all the layout files into flat hierarchy.

    No, you can’t configure or modify a folder structure in android packages res/layout because they are read only file system.

    The resources mechanism doesn't support subfolders in the layout directory, so you need to keep that hierarchy flat.
    

    If you have to do like that just you can give a xml files name like, layout_setting.xml , layout_display.xml etc and use it.
