I am using this answer to handle dimens for all screen sizes, but I have misunderstanding, can anyone explain me, for which screen density is generated android default dimens?

And also if I'm trying to handle xxhdpi for both 1080x1920 and 1440x2560, how should I do that?

Because I'm allowed to build only one dimension with the name values-xxhdpi or it is not even a keyword? Any help is appreciated, thanks.

**mdpi**, of course. mdpi has been, is and will always be the *default density*. – Phantômaxx Oct 04 '17 at 13:38

Don't confuse screen density with screen size. – Henry Oct 04 '17 at 13:39
@ModularSynth thx,and how to handle xxhdpi for both 1080x1920 and 1440x2560? – Hayk Baghdasaryan Oct 04 '17 at 13:43
use either the `w` or `h` switches. ie: `w1080` and `w1440`. You might want to read the official docs, though. – Phantômaxx Oct 04 '17 at 13:44
@ModularSynth so values-xxhdpi is not a keyword? – Hayk Baghdasaryan Oct 04 '17 at 13:46
It's a switch. But in your case it's not enough, because you want to distinguish between 2 different `xxhdpi`. Again, go through the official docs. – Phantômaxx Oct 04 '17 at 13:47
@ModularSynth w1080 and w1440 will work both on horizontal and vertical device? – Hayk Baghdasaryan Oct 04 '17 at 13:48
Don't do the help-vampire. Find the official docs by googling for `android supporting multiple screens` – Phantômaxx Oct 04 '17 at 13:49
