Description Stefan Stalberg CLA 2012-07-03 03:42:53 EDT 
Build Identifier: 20120606-2254

Using Juno's graphical XML layout editor, it is not possible to specify a fixed size for an Android widget/view in the Properties-LayoutParameters-Width/Height fields. It only allows fill_parent and wrap_content, but not a manually entered fixed size e.g. "60dp".




Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create an Android project
2.Create a New - Other - Android XML File
3.Add/drag a Button to the Layout, using the Palette-Form Widgets
4.Click on the added Button and view its properties
5.Click on the Width field in Layout Parameters
6.Try to enter a fixed size, e.g. 60dp

What editor are you using exactly?
Hint: context menu > 'Open With' shows you the current editor.
Comment 2 Stefan Stalberg CLA 2012-07-03 11:31:45 EDT 
I'm using the "Android Common XML Editor"
