Answer 1

As @Aditya Naik said it is possible using Flavors. Official doc says

BuildType -> Flavor -> main -> Dependencies.

This means that if a resource is declared in both the Build Type and in main, the one from Build Type will be selected.

Note that for the scope of the merging, resources of the same (type, name) but different qualifiers are handled separately.

This means that if src/main/res has

• res/layout/foo.xml

• res/layout-land/foo.xml

  and src/debug/res has

• res/layout/foo.xml
  
  Then the merged resource folder will contain the default foo.xml from src/debug/res but the landscape version from src/main/res
