Recently I discovered layout aliases.
Does the same thing exist for styles?
For example, if my_page.xml uses normal_style, can I set up aliases so that when the device has an xlarge screen the xlarge_style is used instead (without me having to duplicate my_page.xml)?
Answer from @CommonsWare comments:
Have two
styles.xmlfiles, one underres/values/and one underres/values-xlarge/. Eachstyles.xmlfile defines a style with the same name (eg: MyStyle). Then Android chooses the right style based on screen size.
