textSize gets scaled on droid but shouldn't be

Question

hi, I have specified textSize="3mm" but when I run the code on the droid the text is much smaller. I looks like the size has been specified in px. I am using minSdk=4 and anydensity = "true". So it seems like if I ask for 3mm I should get 3mm, right?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Android recommends using sp (scale independent) units for text sizes. Linky

Answer 2

There were problem with the Droid display drivers reporting the wrong density. This made units like mm not work properly.
