Samsung Galaxy Tab layout in graphical layout xml

Can anybody help me set the g开发者_运维问答raphical layout option in eclipse to the dimensions of the Galaxy tab (1024 x 600). I have the emulator set up perfectly its just designing the layout of everything using the .xml and the graphical layout version.

I find it helps me visualize it better when what I design is what I see in the emulator. At the moment my only solution is trial and error.

You can get a bigger view in the 'Layout Design' tab by clicking on the clipping button(next to the outline button) in the upper right hand corner. This will not perhaps get you the exact layout dimensions but it will give you more space.

Samsung offers a third party addon. You can download it if interested.

To increase the layout height and width select custom from the Graphical layout view and create a new size for landscape and portrait mode.
