AFAIK and as an Android developer, I don't think there's a way around the need to hand-edit the XML files that lie behind the Android GUI layout. It's pretty labor-intensive and I don't think there are any shortcuts.

There are plenty of gotchas in Android development, but on the other hand, there are plenty of ways to get assistance online, primarily by doing research and looking at other people's code.

Hey,

Thanks for the reply, I gave the wrong idea with the word convert I mean't manually code but I can't seem to find many online resources that go into detail about going from a photoshop design to a coded user interface.
