Every element is big - stretched (font, pcitures, map...)

Issue

I have two projects and one of them have every element very very big. This is screen with normal size map and alert dialog:

And this is where everything is big (same tablet 10):

I have no idea what is wrong with the other project. Second project is good looking on 480x800, but on bigger screen is bigger fond, alert, map (with controllers) and just everything. What could be the problem? I tried the same XML and it is still different. Where can I modify something and it will be OK? Thank you very much for answers.

Solution

It looks like you have enabled screen compatibility mode in the second project. So you need to disable it. It can be done in several ways:

1. Set targetSdkVersion to 11 or higher in your AndroidManifest.

   <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="4" android:targetSdkVersion="11" />
   

2. Or explicitly declare that your application supports xlarge screens.

   <supports-screens android:xlargeScreens="true" />
   

Here you can find more detailed infromation Screen Compatibility Mode
