How do I use the downloaded android holo icons, stencils, fonts?


I have downloaded the entire pack from http://developer.android.com/design/downloads/index.html I want to know how to use those. Do I place it somewhere in the android sdk folder so that it is visible in my Graphical Layout in Eclipse editor or should i be using the individual icons and fonts as required in my project by placing it in the drawable-hdpi folder?

Thanks in advance.


Solution

  • If you are using one of the latest versions of the Android Development Tools in Eclipse, you can just go to New->Other, and the Android->Android Icon Set and it will show you a step by step Wizard where you can select all those images, the color, name, sizes, and it will automatically place the different versions in the corresponding folders.

    You can check it out here. Also, at the beggining of the linked page, there´s another link to the web app version that allows you to easily create nine-patch images, besides icons and other assets.
