How to keep android emulator on top of screen

android, emulation, screen

Solution

There are three additional good ways to fix this other than the comment (which is also perfectly reasonable) above:

- Have two monitors, eclipse running on one and the emulator on the other

- If you only have one monitor and you're on Windows 7, then it comes with a great window stacking feature. Just press the 'window' button and the left arrow and the highlighted window will stack to the left. Press the 'window' button and the right arrow and the highlighted window will stack to the right. So you can stack eclipse on one side and emulator on the other.

- If you only have one monitor and are on a mac, download the small and free app called cinch. Once it's installed, simply drag the eclipse window to the left and it'll stack it a-la windows 7, drag the emulator to the right, it'll stack it to the right.

Problem solved?

Problem
