When I create a new project with API14 as minimum, then there is no values-21
or values-22
folder in my project. I don't see any styles.XML anywhere, so how should I put in XML code for just Lollipop?
I use Android Studio 1.0.1, and I have SDK 21, 21.1.1, 24.0.2 installed.
You are changing values in file which is generated by Android Studio, so it is changed every time you build your project. All files inside build folders are generated and there is no need in changing them. Instead you should put your values in values. xml under app->src->main->res->values .
The res/values folder is used to store the values for the resources that are used in many Android projects to include features of color, styles, dimensions etc.
Updated: Since API 22
has been released. API 23
is the same idea.
Right click the RES
folder
Then type values-v22
as the directory name and choose xml as the resource type.
If you do NOT see the values-v22
show up, click
the Project pulldown at the top of the screen like so. e.g. Change from Android to Project
Now right click styles.xml
in the values folder
and choose copy
Now right click the values-v22
folder and click paste.
You should see this popup
Click ok
At this point you should be good to go.
