title: Android - pixels to dips
body: <p>I have an image of a face (250px X 250px) that is in an absolute layout element. I currently get the user's touch coordinates and using some maths calculate what has been touched (eg the nose), then do something accordingly.</p>
  
  <p>My question is how to scale this to fit the screen width available. If I set the image (in the xml) to fill_parent, the coordinates are way out. Can this be remedied by converting the touch coordinates to dips (if so, how), or will I need to get the screen width (again convert into dips) and sort out the coordinate problem using more maths?</p>
  
  <p>Any and all help appreciated.</p>
