I am new in Android Development. In the latest version of Android Studio I want to use Material Components for my app. But after implementing its gradle script my Android Studio Designer Preview went black/blank. As you can see in screenshot below.
I have implemented the following line in my build.gradle
implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.4.0'
After removing the material components library the preview looks as it should.
I have also tried to restart Android studio as well as my computer.
I just realised that I have used
implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.4.0'
instead of
implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.4.0-rc01'
Now the issue has been fixed.

I want to add a Run/Debug Configuration for an iOS Application for a Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile application in Android Studio 4.1.2. However, there seems to be a problem with the configuration for iOS.
In the screenshot below you can see the problem. In the dialog "Run/Debug Configuration" Android Studio complains about
Error: Please specify Xcode project location in xcodeproj property of gradle.properties
Using the "Fix" button does not solve the problem. Android Studio just adds an additional xcodeproj to gradle.properties and the complains about a duplicate parameter.
I also tried different paths (relative and absolute) for xcodeproj. No luck.
If I remember correctly, it used to work out of the box. A new Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile project was automatically configured for Android and iOS. I'm not sure what changed. Probably something was updated.
Is this a bug with the KMM plugin? Or is there something I can do on my system to fix this?
don't do that with Android Studio.
Just open Xcode, click on 'open another project...', locate to the iosApp folder that named it when creating your project on Android Studio.
after that, just click run and have fun.
If the project doesn't run right away even on opening it from Xcode and shows the shared framework is missing, Then try generating the shared framework for iOS platform using terminal. Navigate to the project folder and execute
Command: ./gradlew packForXcode
Now the shared framework should have a xcode-frameworks product and you should be able to build and run the project through Xcode.
I fixed it by downgrading the Kotlin version from 1.4.30 to 1.4.21. You can check this thread here. To downgrade, download the version you want from the plugin store and choose the install plugin from disk as in the picture below
Upgrading Android Studio version to 4.2.1, KMM plugin version to 0.2.6, creating new KMM project with KMM plugin, the problem can be fixed automatically.
If you don't wanna use Xcode:
Look like there is some IDE issues in this versions, one option would be to downgrade the Kotlin version.
What worked for me was to download the latest Canary Android Studio and setup my KMM project there.
Hopefully soon this will be stable for the next versions

With Android Studio 3.5, I'm trying to create a navigation graph, but the design view is empty
I know this was an issue with 3.2 but its just not working in 3.5.
In my project build.gradle file I'm using
navigationVersion = '2.1.0'
In my app build.gradle file, I have it listed as
// Navigation Components
implementation "androidx.navigation:navigation-fragment-ktx:$rootProject.navigationVersion"
implementation "androidx.navigation:navigation-ui-ktx:$rootProject.navigationVersion"
Update:
Re-installed Android Studio on my Mac after deleting all the cache , library files etc ... Still no luck.
Tried to create another new project and I see the design view displaying the fragments.
Any tips on where to compare the differences between both projects ?
This project was migrated from before I moved everything to AndroidX. After removing the following line from the gradle file ... the design view appeared.
androidTestImplementation "android.arch.navigation:navigation-testing:$rootProject.navigationTestVersion"
Looks like Android Studio gets confused when it sees the older navigation dependency in the gradle file.
I am currently using some libraries (e.b. material design lib) to create apps.
I want to set the minimum SDK to 5.0, but it cannot be done because the version of that library is higher.
My question is how can I know the list of installed/non-installed dependencies(e.g. com.android.support:design) provided by Google in android studio(like SDK manager) or not?
Honestly, I was using the Eclipse IDE for developing android apps, and now I switch to Android Studio. It is difficult to me to use Android Studio. Is there any resources to learn more detailed about the usage of Android Studio?

At first make sure in the left panel Project is selected.
Then right-click on your appropriate project name and select Open Module Settings
There you will see the Dependencies tab that you were searching for. There you will explore the options to add or remove dependencies or shifting them up or down in the easiest way. Hope you will find Android Studio more interesting then Eclipse gradually.

The official android developer site of Google is well enough to learn Android Studio in details. Everything is there. Still you can also go for tutorialspoint tutorial about Android Studio.

Yesterday Google announced that native code debugging is now possible with this version of Android Studio.
https://plus.google.com/+AndroidDevelopers/posts/2Gk6yrZKV4X
I've updated to the newest build version "AI-141.1962279" and can't see any possibility of debugging native code.
I've switched to build-tools 23.0-rc1, used gradle plugin 1.3.0-beta1 but cannot set breakpoints in native code or step into JNI calls.
Is it really working?
July 10th update Android Studio Preview with NDK support is available : https://sites.google.com/a/android.com/tools/tech-docs/android-ndk-preview
Android Studio 1.3.0-Preview is indeed available through the Android Studio "Check for updates" menu.
Unfortunately, all C++ features aren't available yet in this preview. They will be available in about 2 weeks.

Android Studio 1.3 Beta Available
posted Jun 19, 2015, 11:37 AM by Tor Norbye
Android Studio 1.3 Beta is now available in the beta channel! Sorry, this build does not yet contain the C/C++ support; we are still ironing out a couple of critical issues, but we hope to be ready in the next week or two. Similarly, the vector rasterization support is also still not enabled due to various bugs.
UPDATE:
the 9th of July update contains c++ debug
http://tools.android.com/recent
Even on the Canary Channel, the latest currenlty available build is 1.2.1.1. We will simply have to wait a bit longer for 1.3. The "About Box" in Android Studio also displays the version number; check that to be sure.
"As announced at Google I/O, Android Studio 1.3 will include C/C++ support as well, but that is not included in the first couple of preview builds."

FYI:
NDK support is included from Android Studio 1.3 RC1 on. This includes editing running and debugging C and C++ code. See Android NDK Preview and experimental Gradle plugin guide.
with Android Studio 1.4 release you could debug native JNI code. Your project need to use gradle plugin com.android.model.application though.
After you create a project with JNI code in it, this Android Studio version will create a debug Configuration (mine is called app-native)
once you select this configuration, you could set breakpoint in JNI code
then run your app with android studio [it will download and start app on device]
When JNI code is launched, Android Studio will break right away. You could set more breakpoint at this moment too
Then let debugger "go" [to continue ]
Your breakpoints will get hit
The gradle model plugin examples could be found from googlesamples/android-ndk on github. There is a youtube clip called HelloJniWithAndroidStudio shows how to create a hello-jni with android studio 1.3, most steps still work for 1.4 -- it might help for build.gradle creation.
Different version of gradle mode plugin requires different gradle version:
Gradle-Model-Plugin-version 0.2.0 works with Gradle Version 2.5
Gradle-Model-Plugin-version 0.3.0-alpha3 works with Gradle version 2.6
you could find out what versions are available from the jcenter links mentioned earlier.
When I type ctrl-q in Android Studio, the documentation opens, works fine. But if I have API calls from the support library (like ContextCompat.getExternalFilesDirs), I see a more or less empty window.
But it workes some updates ago?! IIRC?!
The code compiles and works, I did not change anything but installing Android and Studio updates... Now it's Android Studio 0.9.2, Support Libraray 21.0.1
In build.gradle I have com.android.support:support-v4:21.0.+, and "0.1" not working, only "0.0" or "0.+". Kind of library version mismatch?
