I have a strange issue with the android studio design screen
Whenever I enter any number in the layout -> constraint Widget (up left right down) and press ENTER
the numerical style keeps changing by itself in the attribute field (such as layout_marginTop) to Hindi style (Arabic) and of course, because of this, the Design screen keeps disappearing because that causes an error in the XML syntax.
I tried everything in the regional setting (changing the number of standard digits and native digits in the windows regional settings) but non of that made any difference. I attached a screenshot for more clarification.
can anyone help me?
Please advise on how to get rid of this issue

Here's a snapshot of my app where you can see the running app which has missing text and you can see the text that should be displaying (which is properly displaying in design mode).
Why isn't the text displaying at runtime?
This only started happening when I updated to version 4.1 of Android Studio and rebuilt my app.
Additionally, here is how they are defined in the layout xml:
Here's a view of the layout details of the one checkbox that is not displaying the text:
Notice that it is showing text size in PT (points).
I changed it to sp after choosing from droplist and now it displays properly.
Not sure why this has always worked in the past and suddenly stopped working.
If it is a change I would expect an auto-update functionality when Android Studio upgrades the project.
Should Not Work In Design Mode Either
If it is a problem I would also expect it to display improperly in the Design Mode also. Instead it looks correct in design mode even though runtime doesn't display it. In this way I would've understood that I was using an incorrect unit.
TextView Also
I found that this was also happening in many of my TextView controls.
I updated my Android Studio recently to 4.0 and now when I type code incorrectly, and I mouse over the red squiggly line to see what it expects or suggests, the tooltip appears and disappears very quickly. I can't read it. In fact, it's even harder now to get the thing to show up, it's very precise where the mouse pointer is. I've restarted everything including my computer. I've changed the tooltip settings from 700 to 2000 with no change. Anyone else have this issue and know how to fix it?
Thanks all!
I found the answer via this link:
Android Studio , tooltip disappearing so fast
Basically, put a bunch of random letters in your filter for Logcat and it will stop the messages, the tooltip will stay up. When Logcat is running it's interrupting the tooltips now for some reason. I think this must be a bug.
In a couple of resource with Android Studio I have seen people typing a widget's name and after closing the parenthesis a list of possible properties was appearing appear above the widet as show in the screenshot. However, I am not getting this displayed. Can someone shine some light on what needs to be set in order see this list?
how it is supposed to look
Many thanks!
Found the solution to this: Just press CTRL and hoover with the mouse pointer over it.
I have the weirdest display bug in the Fabric Plugin for Android Studio.
Check it out :
Interestingly :
I discovered that each and every character was replaced by its ASCII value minus 2. Ex : "2 PEOPLE" is displayed "0 NCMNJC".
Characters are weirdly overlapping each other. As the typeface is not monospace ('m' takes more space than 'i'), it indicates that the required space for each character is rightfully calculated, but the wrong character is finally displayed.
Any idea ?
I'm running Android Studio 2.3.2 on Windows 10.
Turned out to be a much wider problem I solved by deleting hundreds of fonts following that piece of advice
I don't know which font was causing this and why it only affected this particular plugin of this particular software though.
i'm running windows 7 and run into the same problem what worked for me is :
startMenu>control panel>
top right on control panel window choosing any other view than category >
choose fonts folder>
in the fonts window on the top left choose font setting
and than press the restore default font setting
after all this restart your computer and than you should see the right font displayed also note that i did a full uninstall and reinstall of the fabric.io plugin to android studio before restarting computer cause when i reset the font setting it caused a quick display of the right font and than jumped to the bugged font all over...
The code, that I typed, displays color completely different from the sample code. And I have no idea how to make it displays as the sample one. This bug appears on every scheme, including Default one.
This was caused by the 'Power save mode' is turned on. We just have access to menu File > Power Save Mode to turn it off then code scheme will be displayed as normal.
