PercentSupportLibrary : Set percentage values in xml?

Question

I want to use different layout width ratios for larger tablet screens. Is there a way to set percentage based (fraction-type) values such as layout_widthPercent and layout_marginStartPercent in dimens.xml?

Answer 1

I just solved it. The values in dimens.xml will be something like this :

<resources>
    <item name="width_percent" type="dimen">60%</item>
</resources>

Answer 2

I'm not sure if anyone else has had this problem since 2015 but, you can use a fraction tag:

    <fraction name="dialog_anim_y_scale">14.285571%</fraction>
