Alright guys, I don't know if this is the correct forum for this post, so apologies if I'm wrong.

 

I am looking for a specific XPosed plugin, but I'm not even sure it exists. In short, I want a plugin that will change the resolution on a per-app basis. not just the DPI. My ultimate goal is to get my GMail app to look like it did when I ran PACMan -- all small and compact. I found a great plugin that will change the DPI, but I need more than that, apparently.

 

Ideas? Am I just SOL?

I have that one, ZKK007. It changes the DPI (and does so rather well, I must say). It does not change the actual resolution, though. 

 

Unfortunately, I don't have that ROM installed on my phone anymore so I can't post a screenshot, but it removed a lot of the white space found in the stock GMail app, allowing more messages to be seen on the screen. Changing the DPI can give me tablet mode, which is great, but I still have a bunch of that white space.

I figured out a work-around. I was Googling to try to find an image of the PACMan GMail app when I found a site that explained it slightly differently. That helped me find the right combination of settings to get something reasonably close.

 

I've attached some before, after, and settings screenshots to help explain. Thanks!

Ah, nice! Glad you got it sorted!

@pmbasehore - Thanks for the info on how you set up Gmail.  I applied the settings to Drive and I now have the tablet layout when working with spreadsheets.
