Terms of use
Please, specify in all documents produced with help of our stencil reference to us; it can be a simple phrase, like: "UI was designed with help of ArtfulBits Android GUI Prototyping Stencil" somewhere in the document or simple reference in about box of the final application. Thanks.
If you have a fix or have suggestion that will help all of us, please don't hesitate to send a note to our android team. We will be happy to update the stencil ASAP :)

Installation and Usage
Using of this stencil require Microsoft Visio 2003 or higher;
Download the stencil archive from our web site;
Unpack the archive and place files from it into folder on your choice;
Start Visio and select required type of diagram (Windows XP User Interface is preferable);
File --> Shapes --> Open stencil…
Select previously downloaded stencil in the dialog for open. Press OK.
You are now ready for GUI prototyping!

Usage notes
Instead of images/icons for the buttons we use Wingdings font symbols. We found them fitting very nice for prototyping. Also, we will appreciate any help in finding more fonts like Wingdings for community. Send us a message with the link to the font and we will update this page with it!
Added special stencil with Android icons for easier style and feel creation;
To edit complex controls, like: image buttons, context menus, tab controls use double click;
Looks like Calibri is a default font for Android UI, but Arial & Arial Narrow fonts also make weather on several screens;
Frames sizes are in inches, but they are accurate - we use DPI metric for transforming inches to pixels;
We intentionally don't want to make elements 100% the same as Android has. Two reasons:
Do not allow to produce fake screens for community - our prototypes must be recognizable between others;
This is prototyping!!! The prototye will not be the same as the final UI screen;
