Issue
I have a multi-page app that is working great except for image loading. Each page has a fullscreen image. I have 5 drawable folders -- the default one without any page images in it and then these four:
drawable-long
drawable-notlong
drawable-long-xhdpi
drawable-notlong-xhdpi
My app is set to only landscape. The image files in notlong
are 4x3 aspect ratio. In long
they are 16x9 aspect ratio.
On the Nexus 7 and 5, both devices report a screen type of long yet use the 4x3 images from drawnble-notlong-xhdpi
. How can I get them to use the long
images?
If I remove the two notlong
folders, on app startup I get a NotFoundException
on the image resource (which crashes the app).
I did add the equivalent layout
views but still the 4x3 image is being displayed.
Solution
This is a duplicate of Android resource notlong / long identifiers not working as it turns out there was a bug -- my code telling me if the screen was long or not was wrong. For a Nexus 7, 1920/1200 = 1.6 which is less than the 1.667 ratio that triggers the long view as mentioned in the linked to Q&A. So Android is working correctly however the normal aspect ratio can be quite a ways from 4x3 so one has to take that into account.
