Android Development in Eclipse: New layouts are small

I've tried finding the answer to this but none of my searches have found useful info.

Anyway, usually when I add new layouts they're just fine, but sometimes eclipse will start making the new layouts about half-sized and will make me restart the program to get it working. I was wondering if anybody could tell me if it's something I'm doing wrong and how to resolve the issue.

Here's an image to show you what I mean. small layout

at the TOP side of you graphical layout screen...there is OPTION for Device screen selection in Configuration chooser...

Look here for more help Eclipse ADT

you have selected "Android wear Round" screen that may be around 2.7"

Instead of that select "Nexus One".. which screen size is 3.7" (480 x 800 hdpi) it will set your layout to bigger size... OR YOU CAN SELECT OTHER ONE TOO

Changing a device screen can make difference...

enter image description here

You Can See All Screen Previews By Checking "Preview All Screens"...
It will give you all listed screen previews as per their dimensions so you can see that how your application looks on different screen...

You are developing for Android-wear. It is the watch and it's small:D Change it to some Google or Generic phone or tablet.
