Hello hitesharo,

I'm not sure what you exactly want to do, but defining the height of views is done in the Layout-Resources.

Syntax: [ Download ] [ Hide ]

Using xml Syntax Highlighting

        <TextView
 
        style="@style/settings_quickinfo_textstyle"
 
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
 
        android:layout_height="30px"  <!-- here -->
 
        android:text="Hello World"  />
Parsed in 0.001 seconds,  using GeSHi 1.0.8.4

Setting [font=Courier New]android:layout_height[/font] to an exact pixel-value is said to be 'executed' pixel-sharp, but this maybe conflicts with TextSizes.

( I haven't tried that)

Or do you want to extract that "30px" to a separate resource-file.

Regards,

I think that's what he wants, plusminus.

If that's the case, you can define the layout_height (and other parameters) in a styles file.

styles.xml (res-values):

Using xml Syntax Highlighting

<resources>
 
    <style name="LoginText">
 
        <item name="android:layout_height">30px</item>
 
        <item name="android:layout_width">fill_parent</item>
 
    </style>
 
</resources>

and set that style to your TextView in res-layout

    <EditText android:id="@+id/login"
 
        style="@style/LoginText"
 
                ...
