Android GUI using Eclipse

Question

I've been using XML to create my UI and I know this question may sound silly but it is not.

How do you create a UI using the Android plugin for Eclipse?

(Is there a step by step tutorial somewhere or can someone give me step by step instructions)

Does the class name have to be the same as my view name?

Answer 1

Android plugin comes with handy visual editor where you can drag and drop views and widgets easily. And you don't have to name the xml files similar to your activity class because you will use setContentView() inside the activity to specify its view

This may not quite be what you are looking for but I would check out DroidDraw. Makes doing Android GUIs more friendly. There is a tutorial at http://www.droiddraw.org/tutorial1.html
