Android Drawable Importer Plugin

alt text

This plugin consists of 3 main features. You can access them by a right-click anywhere inside an Android module under New.

  1. AndroidIcons Drawable Import
    You are able to select the asset, specify your color, change the target resource name and select all the resolutions you want to import.
    All the missing folders will be created automatically. If there are already drawables with the same name, you will be warned.

    You can download AndroidIcons here for free: http://www.androidicons.com/

  2. Scaled Drawable
    Select an asset and specify the resolution of it. If you want to scale the to be imported image as well, you should select other and then fill out the target resolution and the target width / height. Then you can specify all the resolutions, to which the drawable should be resized to.
    This works also with 9-Patch-Images. But take care: sometimes it's necessary to remove / add about one "pixel" in the 9-Patch-Editor. But just try it :)

  3. Multisource-Drawable
    Ever got a zip with drawables for your Android project by your designer with the following structure?

    root/  
      ./drawable_ldpi.png  
      ./drawable_mdpi.png  
      ./drawable_hdpi.png  
      ./drawable_xhdpi.png

    No problem! Now you can just select for every resolution a different asset, specify one name for them, and the rest is done by the plugin.

Hint: When you select an asset, you can also just drag a file from your finder / explorer to the text field and drop it there.
