Android targeting medium screen sizes

Question

Relatively new to Android development, so sorry if this is a stupid question(I don't have a full understanding of the layouts yet).

I am trying to optimize my app for medium, high, and x-high dpi devices with a medium screen size.

In Eclipse, I have set up "layout-normal-mdpi", "layout-normal-hdpi" and "layout-normal-xhdpi".

Would this be the most efficient way of deving for my targeted screen size? Thanks

Yes using layout folders is the most efficient way to take care of different screen sizes.

One more quick question - will creating more folders inside the resources directory increase the size of the app when someone is downloading it? – Jack Aug 23 '13 at 10:30
the size of xml files are very small. Infact negligible :). So that wont cause any significant size increment.. – Sushil Aug 23 '13 at 14:16
