I've recently updated Android Studio IDE to 4.0 and every time a popup window opens, it starts animating from center and performs a scale animation. I want to disable this feature, and from IDE settings I closed "Animate windows" option but the behavior did not change.
The animation I'm complaining about is this:
Is it possible to change this behavior or is it enforced? If it's enforced I think I'll download an older version of Android Studio instead because it looks very bad to me. Thank you for your help.
It looks like you can disable it by appending -Djbre.popupwindow.settype to Help -> Edit Custom VM Options...

The emulator is built-in the Android Studio UI by default after updating to the Bumblebee (2021.1.1) version.
As shown in bellow image there are 5 options in view mode for changing it.
I tried all but any of them doesn't show emulator stand alone like older versions.
I want to see emulator like this without any window:
How can I achieve this behavior like in the older versions?
File -> Settings -> Tools -> Emulator -> Uncheck Launch in a tool window, Click ok.
For me, restarting the IDE was required too.
View Mode > Window
Does Work
See screenshot

You are using a bad version of constraint layout I would use the constraint layout from the androidx Library
androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout I think is the tag
You can try to invalidate Caches and restart like this:
File -> Invalidate Caches/Restart...
After you have done it try to reopen android studio and check your preview.
Another solution that can help you is to switch from the Text tab to the Design tab, this is also the recommended option for working with ConstraintLayout + you can see your preview in your design tab.
And if all of that didn't work you can always reinstall android studio again, this may be the less recommended option but it will most likely solve your problem.
I have recently installed Android Studio 2.2.2. But in the IDE the preview and design window for xml not showing complete mobile-like appearance that I used to view in previous version, rather it is showing only the mobile screen with rulers around. How can I see full featured preview/design? Pls advice.
I was also looking for this, But its new functionally it will look like this by default. only screen and blueprints, No mobile.

Older versions of Android Studio had a Refresh option in the layout preview in the IDE, but in v2.2 it has vanished. I am finding repeatedly that I update drawable bitmaps in the project with updated files, that new version is not reflected automatically, and I do not see the preview. Problems like this are so common with Android Studio, it's such an utterly infuriating IDE and so flaky, despite the speed it is advancing.
Where did the refresh option go? I can't believe I'm having to actually ask this, but maybe I missed it somewhere obvious!
I arranged my Android Studio IDE tool windows layout to fit 2 screens in a dual monitor setup and saved it as the default. I would also like to save another layout for single screen setup.
Question: Is it possible to save multiple layout configuration for tool windows in Android Studio. If so how?
Thanks,
George
Go to menu window > Store current layout as default
A bit late to the party, but there is a newer plugin, that works much better imho.
You can define 4 layouts, it can switch layouts immediately, it also (re-)stores the floating state of each panel and so on:
https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/13005-window-layout-manager
There is an IntelliJ IDEA plugin preserve-layout-plugin that allows you to that. It's available in the plugin repository, just search for preserve.
By default, you need to restart the IDE or open another project in order to load the layout but the following works as well: you import the layout, you store it as default, and then you restore the default layout.
The following method helped me.
1) Run Android Studio as administrator.
2) Now, arrange the tabs as you want.
3) Go to Window->Store current layout as default.
This is something I missed when I started Android development especially after using multiple layout in Unity Editor before this.
However, I found this plugin - "Window Layout Manager" Link which you can also find and install via Android Studio plugins marketplace.
Allows you to arrange different windows/components like terminal, logcat, project explorer etc and save it with a name.
