Possible Element Pos Bug

[gnostic]

"Possible Element Pos Bug" as i don't know if it's a bug;

i'm developing an Android application and for the login screen, i used the sample image as my background image and placed my text fields and buttons on top of the image.

images:
designer) this is how it looks on designer
layout = 1280*800, scale = 1 (160dpi)

emulator) this is how it looks on emulator
WXGA (1280*800), LCD Density = medium (160)

galaxy note) this is how it looks on my galaxy note
1280*800, 285 ppi

any suggestions?

The galaxy note "actual" size is much smaller than the tablet size layout you created.

The scale of the galaxy note is 2.0. This means that the actual size is 640x400. See this thread: http://www.b4x.com/forum/basic4andr...1-samsung-galaxy-note-emulator.html#post77540

ok, i'm definitely doing something wrong

attached you'll see my emulator info (1280*800, 320) yet designer detects it as 160 dpi (scale=1)

It probably because you chose Android 3.1 as the API level. This is a tablet only version. Try creating a new AVD with Android 2.3.
