H!,

I don't understand why I don't get the exact 1:1 image when using photoshop (html5) and a android device.

For example:
I have a android device with a resolution 1280x720 (xperia S)
Then I have a simple image 32x32 (72dpi) and that is the size I want to see.

But I see a very small image (about 10x10) but its the same image.

In other words.
How to design wysiwyg in photoshop for android.

that's a high resolution for a small display. do you think it's related to pixel density?

So to design 1:1 for photoshop, you'll need to set your image->image size->document resolution to the same ppi as your device.

omg, so many ppi (dpi ?) sizes, I'm going to hate working for android.
- to many different hardware
- to many different software (android versions)
- to many different screensizes (ppi)
- to easy/many install apps illegally

Its really to hard to get it work for all (many) android devices.
Maybe I have to drop android and start only for ios :S
Or for android for only 1 tested/working mobile phone.

Yeah one good thing about apple is standards - though with the rumoured ipad mini where's goona have all sorts of dpi and resolutions soon.
