+=head1 NAME
+
+ddms - a tool to debug and optimize Android user interface
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+hierarchyviewer
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+The Hierarchy Viewer application allows you to debug and optimize your user
+interface. It provides a visual representation of the layout's View hierarchy
+(the Layout View) and a magnified inspector of the display (the Pixel Perfect
+View).
+
+To get the Hierarchy Viewer started:
+
+=over 3
+
+=item 1.
+
+Connect your device or launch an emulator.
+
+=item 2.
+
+Launch Hierarchy Viewer from the shell or your desktop environment's menu.
+
+=item 3.
+
+In the window that opens, you'll see a list of Devices. When a device is
+selected, a list of currently active Windows is displayed on the right. The
+<Focused Window> is the window currently in the foreground, and also the
+default window loaded if you do not select another.
+
+=item 4.
+
+Select the window that you'd like to inspect and click Load View Hierarchy. The
+Layout View will be loaded. You can then load the Pixel Perfect View by clicking
+the second icon at the bottom-left of the window.
+
+=back
+
+If you've navigated to a different window on the device, press Refresh Windows
+to refresh the list of available windows on the right.
+
+=head2 Layout View
+
+The Layout View offers a look at the View layout and properties. It has three
+views:
+
+ Tree View: a hierarchy diagram of the Views, on the left.
+ Properties View: a list of the selected View's properties, on the top-right.
+ Wire-frame View: a wire-frame drawing of the layout, on the bottom-right.
+
+Select a node in the Tree View to display the properties of that element in the
+Properties View. When a node is selected, the Wire-frame View also indicates the
+bounds of the element with a red rectangle. Double click a node in the tree
+(or select it, and click Display View) to open a new window with a rendering
+of that element.
+
+The Layout View includes a couple other helpful features for debugging your
+layout: Invalidate and Request Layout. These buttons execute the respective
+View calls, invalidate() and requestLayout(), on the View element currently
+selected in the tree. Calling these methods on any View can be very useful when
+simultaneously running a debugger on your application.
+
+The Tree View can be resized by adjusting the zoom slider, below the diagram.
+The number of View elements in the window is also given here. You should look
+for ways to minimize the number of Views. The fewer View elements there are in
+a window, the faster it will perform.
+
+If you interact with the device and change the focused View, the diagram will
+not automatically refresh. You must reload the Layout View by clicking Load View
+Hierarchy.
+
+=head2 Pixel Perfect View
+
+The Pixel Perfect View provides a magnified look at the current device window.
+It has three views:
+
+ Explorer View: shows the View hierarchy as a list, on the left.
+ Normal View: a normal view of the device window, in the middle.
+ Loupe View: a magnified, pixel-grid view of the device window, on the right.
+
+Click on an element in the Explorer View and a "layout box" will be drawn in the
+Normal View to indicate the layout position of that element. The layout box uses
+multiple rectangles, to indicate the normal bounds, the padding and the margin
+(as needed). The purple or green rectangle indicates the normal bounds of the
+element (the height and width). The inner white or black rectangle indicates the
+content bounds, when padding is present. A black or white rectangle outside the
+normal purple/green rectangle indicates any present margins. (There are two
+colors for each rectangle, in order to provide the best contrast based on the
+colors currently in the background.)
+
+A very handy feature for designing your UI is the ability to overlay an image
+in the Normal and Loupe Views. For example, you might have a mock-up image of
+how you'd like to layout your interface. By selecting Load... from the controls
+in the Normal View, you can choose the image from your computer and it will be
+placed atop the preview. Your chosen image will anchor at the bottom left
+corner of the screen. You can then adjust the opacity of the overlay and begin
+fine-tuning your layout to match the mock-up.
+
+The Normal View and Loupe View refresh at regular intervals (5 seconds by
+default), but the Explorer View does not. If you navigate away and focus on a
+different View, then you should refresh the Explorer's hierarchy by clicking
+Load View Hierarchy. This is even true when you're working in a window that
+holds multiple Views that are not always visible. If you do not, although the
+previews will refresh, clicking a View in the Explorer will not provide the
+proper layout box in the Normal View, because the hierarchy believes you are
+still focused on the prior View.
+
+Optional controls include:
+
+ Overlay: Load an overlay image onto the view and adjust its opacity.
+ Refresh Rate: Adjust how often the Normal and Loupe View refresh their display.
+ Zoom: Adjust the zoom level of the Loupe View.
