    Sweet thanks! ;-)
  • Hi Tim, thanks for the great work. I'm using the skin in my emulator. I've done a little enhancement regarding the sharpness of the graphic, please see my post at http://blog.mathiaslin.com/nexus-one-emulator-skin-updated
    I hope you don't mind, otherwise please let me know. Regards, Mathias
  • Hi Mathias,

    for the update!

    Hey! Thanks for the skin! I only have one problem with it. Its too large for my 1280x800 resolution. Is there any quick fix I could do? Let me know by email if it's not to much to ask.

    Thank a lot
  • Just add -scale 0.5 to your Run Arguments, either in Eclipse 'Run
    Configuration' or if you start with the emulator executable at the command
    line)...

    I use .5 at 1024x768, which means it will be 50% of the original size.

    Hy
    where I put "add -scale 0.5"?
    thank
  • If you use Eclipse to start the emulator, it's under the 'Run configurations', Target / Additional Emulator Command Line Options.
    Otherwise, if you start the emulator from command line, you just add the parameter there.
  • Thanks Mathias,

    Also note, you can use dpi as a scale option, like '-scale 96dpi' - matching
    this to the dpi of your monitor.

    Hi,
    My laptop is IBM R51. And when I tried to launch emulator with your skin by using scale options, it is not working. Some black screens appears and disappears immediately. Could you write to me what is wrong with it?

    Regards,
  • Lukas
    Thanks a lot Tim! It worked like a charm. Is it normal to see the icons and text being really small?
  • This is related to the LCD Density in the hardware.ini file for the skin...
    I'm not positive, but since the default WVGA800 skin has the LCD Density at
    240.. I would imagine that is correct for the Nexus One. If you really want
    the density your used to - you could change it. I think the standard density
    is 160, but it won't be what your users would see on a Nexus One.

    Good to know Tim. Thanks for bearing with me. I'm still new to android development.
    It's nice to see someone is willing to help out.
