Android Widget 1×1 Background

February 5th, 2011 2 comments

One thing that irked me when android came out with widgets in 1.5 was that the documentation didn’t include a psd of a 1×1 widget background. I took an existing widget and created a 1×1 sized widget from that. Please feel free to download and use or modify for your applications.

1x1_Widget_Frame_Landscape_2
1x1_Widget_Frame_Portrait_2

UPDATE: Adding 4×2 versions of the background.

4x2_Widget_Frame_Landscape
4x2_Widget_Frame_Portrait

Error when trying to run Google Android application in Eclipse

November 27th, 2007 No comments

I was trying to build a new Android application using the Eclipse plugin. Everything went find according to the direction except when I tried to run the application. Eclipse said I need to fix errors before running. I took a look at the problems tab and it displayed this error: “Error executing aapt. Please check aapt is present at %”.

After poking around a bit, I found that I needed to specify the location of the SDK that you can download from Google. I was able to fix this by specifying the Android SDK location in the Android configuration section in Eclipse.

Window > Preferences > Android. In “SDK Location” enter the location of the extracted sdk: “C:\devel\sdk\android_sdk_windows_m3-rc22a”.

This also fixes the problem where eclipse cant find the android.jar library.
