Do I have to create different layout folders to store my xml layout files. Support my app on different screen sizes?
I developed the application, and when adding drawings, it automatically creates different sizes, such as xdpi ldpi and more, but xml-layout files are not created automatically to support different screen sizes. I have to do it? and I will also edit the manifest file to support different sizes with the support tag. and it's all? And he will also support my landscape or portrait mode. Please confirm. I am new to stack development and Android.
Edit: I believe that different layout files in different folders .. will be just a copy of each other, only with a message about changing the folder name displayed in the code
res/layout/my_layout.xml // layout for normal screen size ("default")
res/layout-small/my_layout.xml // layout for small screen size
res/layout-large/my_layout.xml // layout for large screen size
res/layout-xlarge/my_layout.xml // layout for extra large screen size
res/layout-xlarge-land/my_layout.xml // layout for extra large in landscape orientation
This is my layout xml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

tools:context="com.example.root.meeransunday.MainActivity">
<Button

android:drawableLeft="@mipmap/money"
android:textSize="35sp"
android:id="@+id/textView2"

</RelativeLayout>
Manifest file:
<supports-screens android:smallScreens="true"
android:normalScreens="true"
android:largeScreens="true"
android:xlargeScreens="true"
android:anyDensity="true"
android:resizeable="true"/>
but it does not work on a 4-inch screen.
