In the Android Studio Emulator, in the settings tab, it is not showing "Always on Top" toggle Button.
How can I set the emulator on always top of the screen?
Please Go to Android Emulator Settings Window... Enable Show Window Frame Around Device
Go to options in the android emulator and click: Settings -> Show window frame around device. Then the frame will appear around the emulator. Right click on frame around the emulator. Then click on Always on top.

I usually use Android studio for application development with Flutter.
I'm trying to use VSCode, but as the title says, I can't find the selection of the target device I want to run.
For the time being, I selected [Run and Debug] from the icon on the left and executed it, and I was able to run the app on the actual iphone, but I want to run it on macOS.
I would appreciate it if you could tell me where it is.
At the very bottom of your editor, there is a bar, in this bar you should see the name of the currently selected platform, if you click on the platform, you will bring up a menu where you can select the device.
here is a closeup:
In my case you would click on "windows (windows-x64)"
You can also press Ctrl+Shift+P and write Flutter: select device to bring up the same menu
I'm sure there was a place for selecting device...if connected, it show phone like SM960 , or iPhone .
but suddenly, I can't see this also I can't run code from play button on vscode. (start without debugging)
what happened?
Close the VSCode and again open VSCode as Admin. Than it will show the connected Devices.
The vscode flutter pluggin must be used with vscode oppened as admin.
Make sure to use
ctrl+ shift +p
to select device
It is Easy Just right click on The vs code Bottom Bar. You will Get a list of Item then Click on Flutter devices,
I have this Chrome DevTools color picker issue where the eyedropper is not working when I change the dock position to bottom. The default setting is on the right side and the color picker eyedropper is working fine but not when I change the position. Is there any setting for this? Cause I am unable to find it from DevTools settings.
1. Default Color Picker Eyedropper - dock to right
2. Dock to bottom
Go to settings > experiments > and uncheck "Enable color picking outside the browser window" this should solve the problem. It worked for me.
I had the same issue, for me it happens only when I use multiple screens
So if I have tab in the left screen and use Chrome DevTools color picker eyedropper isn't working but when I move the browser tab in to the right screen and started working again.
Also you can check this answer for a similar issue here: Google Chrome color picker isn't responding
This might help solve your problem it's quite simple. Make sure the edit 'pencil' looking icon located right next to the circle is activated in your Chrome DevTools. Clicking on it triggers the color picker hover tool on and off.
The reason - I made a Progressive web app, opened in the browser - all is fine and browser offered me to add it to home screen.
Now, I want to demonstrate this on a presentation, and so - removed the icon from home screen. But for the last whole day I've been playing with the website in chrome a lot, and the banner never appears back.
Is it really a once-in-a-lifetime thing? Or is there something specific I need to do?
The app-install banner prompt is normally presented after you've visited the site at least twice with at least 5 minutes between each visit. Using a Chrome flag, you can bypass these checks so that the banner always appears on every visit:
Open Android Chrome.
Go to chrome://flags/#bypass-app-banner-engagement-checks
Click Enable
Click Relaunch Now
You can also simulate an Add To Homescreen event from Chrome DevTools:
Open Android Chrome on your phone, and navigate to a PWA (e.g., the Paper Planes app from https://paperplanes.world).
Connect to your Android with a USB cable.
From desktop Chrome DevTools, select Menu > More Tools > Remote Devices. OR CTRLSHIFTP (or CMDSHIFTP for macOS), and enter "Remote devices".
Select your phone by name.
Click the Inspect button next to the list item corresponding to your PWA (e.g., Paper Planes).
In the new DevTools pop-up for your PWA, go to the Application panel, and click Add to homescreen. This should cause the app-install banner to appear in Android Chrome. Note the banner won't appear in the Chrome DevTools screen mirror.
(steps above verified with Chrome 55 on macOS Sierra, and Android Chrome 57)
I found another solution - when I go to the settings of chrome mobile and choose History -> Clear browsing data (make sure that the option to clear Cookies is ticked) then click the Clear Data button - after that I get again the app install banner to add the app to the home screen.
Apparently - it clears not only the data itself, but also makes the browser forget everything about this website.
(Strangely - the old icon doesn't go away ... so now I have a few icons on the home screen :D ...)

How to resize the AVD emulator (in Eclipse)?
(11 answers)
Closed 7 years ago.
My question seems to be stupid, but I really could not solve it.
I am using eclipse to develop android applications, but when I run the emulator AVD it has a fixed window size (very huge on my computer screen), so I can't see the rest of the Android screen.
Can you help me?
If the size of the emulator is too big. You can resize it by:
Run > Run Configurations
Pick the "Target" tab
Scroll down to Additional Emulator Command Line Options and put in: -scale 0.8 or another number
Here can help you:
Menu -> Windows -> Android SDK and AVD manager
Choose your AVD then select Edit button
In line Skin you choose HVGA for built-in or custom your size resolution...
HVGA will allow the emulator to fit on your screen.
type this command
adb emu window scale 0.6
Here's what worked for me:
In eclipse, go Run -> Run configurations.
Select the Target tab.
In the Additional Emulator Command Line Options field type -skin 320x480 or some other resolution appropriate for you.
Click "Apply" button.
Click the "Run" button.
I tried the -scale 0.8 option but it didn't work well because although the screen size was reduced, the color looked like 8 bit color... or worse. It was entirely unusable since the flash screen was almost entirely white.
The -skin 320x480 option produced an emulator of an appropriate size with no graphics issues.
Go to Android AVD manager and chose the device.
Click start >> Launch options >>> Scale display to real size >> screen size >> 6
This is simplest one
Go to Run
Open command prompt
Type: telnet localhost 5554 or telent localhost EMULATORID
Then you will get Android console
Type this command window scale 0.7 or window scale <value from 0 to 1>.
And if you are using Windows 7 then you have to first activate your telnet client.
for this follow these steps:
Go to control panel
There is icon named Programs below that Uninstall program is there click on it.
Then click on the turn Windows features on or off at left most to your screen
One list will be pop up just tick on the telnet client
And then click on OK
For testing go to command prompt and type telnet if you will not get error then telnet is working
This will do exactly what you would like to do, which is leave the emulator screen resolution alone while allowing you to scale the emulator window.
Select the menu item Window/Android SDK and AVD Manager/Start
Check Scale display to real size, (you can then set the screen size in inches on this page)
Click Launch.
The skin size the way you want it will appear, no app will be running. Wait for the launch to complete. Eclipse and Windows might not be not happy if you try to start your app during the skin launch.
Start your app (with F11 for instance).
You may get a dialog about attaching to a running emulator. Do so.
For Android Studio (0.6.1 at time of writing):
Click Run>Edit Configurations
Select module you want to alter under 'Android Application' expandable list on left
Click 'Emulator tab
Make sure 'Additional command line options' is selected and type: -scale 0.5
Hit 'OK' and run your app!
A simple solution with Android Studio is:
- launch the adv manager
- Select the emulator line you want
- hit the edit button on the right (a pencil)
- In the middle of the configuration screen that opens there is a Scale radio field - choose the ratio between device and screen that you prefer. I have chosen "4dp on device = 1px on screen" and the resulting size is just what I wanted (using Nexus 5).
- Hit Finish
Run configurations-> target-> Addition emulator command text box
write
"scale 0.6"
(without quotes)
in linux is easy
How do I launch the Android emulator from the command line?
you need to add at the end this "-scale 0.45"
for example: /home/hackro/Documentos/Software/adt-bundle-linux-x86_64-20140702/sdk/tools/emulator64-x86 -avd Android5.1.1 -scale 0.45
I have shortcuts in my menu of the linux and they work well
