<p>If you would like to test your application on a screen that uses a resolution
or density not supported by the built-in skins, you can either adjust an
existing skin, or create an AVD
that uses a custom resolution or density.</p>
<p>For example, to test on a large WVGA800 screen with medium density:</p>
<p>In the AVD Manager, you can specify a custom skin resolution or density in
the Create New AVD dialog, as shown in Figure 4, at right.</p>
<p>In the <code>android</code> tool, follow these steps to create an AVD with a
custom resolution or density:</p>
<ol>
<li>Create an AVD based on the WVGA800 skin (using the <code>android</code>
tool's command line.)<br></li>
<li>Answer "yes" when asked about using custom hardware</li>
<li>enter "160" when asked about the value for <em>hw.lcd.density</em>
(120-low, 160-medium, 240-high).</li>
<li>Use the <code>create avd</code> command to create a new AVD, specifying
the <code>--skin</code> option with a value that references either a default
skin name (such as "WVGA800") or a custom skin resolution (such as 240x432).
Here's an example:
<pre>android create avd -n &lt;name&gt; -t &lt;targetID&gt; --skin WVGA800</pre>
</li>
<li>To specify a custom density for the skin, answer "yes" when asked whether
you want to create a custom hardware profile for the new AVD.</li>
<li>Continue through the various profile settings until the tool asks you to
specify "Abstracted LCD density" (<em>hw.lcd.density</em>). Consult <a
href="#range">Table 1</a>, earlier in this document, and enter the appropriate
value. For example, enter "160" to use medium density for the WVGA800 screen.</li>
<li>Set any other hardware options and complete the AVD creation.</li>

<p>When running this AVD, the emulator will emulate a 5.8" WVGA screen.</p>
<p>In the example above (WVGA medium density), the new AVD will emulate a 5.8"
