How to change app icons & UI in flutter using flutter Inspector? - android-studio

I brought an app source code from (CodeCanyon) and i want to change the side navigation drawer icon from the given one to the default hamburger icon or something.
They have given me the docs of Flutter page to change it using Flutter Inspector but i don't know how to do it.
Here is the link they send me...
https://flutter.dev/docs/development/tools/devtools/inspector
Help me out...

From Android Studio, run the application in an Emulator or real device.
In the debug tab of Android Studio the 'Open DevTools' button (its icon is the Dart logo) next to the Hot Reload and Hot Restart buttons. This will launch a Dart DevTools tab.
After the new browser tab opens, click the "Try DevTools beta" button in the top right of the screen. This will take you to a new beta version of DevTools.
From there you will see what the linked page is talking about, but you must be on the latest version of Flutter.

On 25th june flutter has declared the stable dev tool, in that if you want to change in ui then,you just have to open dev tool with your connected device and in Flutter inspector enable the select widget mode. and in layout explorer you can changes the ui design properties. But remember one thing you can only changes in the row, column and container properties.

Flutter Inspector and Widget Tree not loading in Android Studio

I have installed latest version of Android Studio as well as all the necessary plugins such as Dart and Flutter. When I run an application and hit the Flutter Inspector tab on the right side of the screen, the Flutter Inspector window pops up with a message saying "The JxBrowser license could not be found".
I have tried all the workarounds indicated in this thread but were to no avail.
Is there anything I missed about the JxBrowser or something?
I've experienced the same message. But I think I've found a temporal way to use the inspector on Android Studio without Layout Explorer (Visualization part for widgets) before Flutter team fixing it.
Go to Preferences > Languages & Frameworks > Flutter and uncheck Enable embedding DevTools in the Flutter Inspector tool window
Then you can use it without Layout Explorer inside Android Studio.
But, if you have to use such a Layout Explorer, then you can use the DevTools in the browser.

Why won't my Flutter Inspector panel dock to the right side of the IDE like the other tools?

I have tried every optional setting (dock pinned, dock unpinned, etc.) but can't get the Flutter Inspector to dock nicely on the right side of the IDE like the other tools (e.g. Flutter Outline).
Here's what Flutter Inspector looks like:
And here's what Flutter Outline looks like:
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
You can remove Flutter Inspector from sidebar and attach it to sidebar again.
First, click on the gear icon on Flutter Inspector and select Remove from Sidebar.
Then, go to View->Tool Windows->Flutter Inspector and attach it to sidebar again.
It should reset the panel settings and fix your problem.

why LogCat and AVD Manager missing in Android Studio when flutter project is opened

In Android Studio 3.5.3 , the menu Tools->AVD Manager and View->Tools Windows->Logcat is not available when a newly(or existing) flutter project is opened.
I looked at https://github.com/flutter/flutter-intellij/issues/2159 , and
<module type="JAVA_MODULE" version="4">
is in the outer most iml file.
Please suggest how to find/enable it. For now I have to open an Android project to open these two menu items.
LogCat won't appear for a flutter project and does not seem to be available to enable in the current version of Android Studio. If you open an Android project in another window, THAT window will have LogCat which can be connected to the device you are trying to debug.
AVD Manager does not have a menu item in Flutter but is available from an icon in the toolbar. See picture.
It's also worth checking out DevTools, which opens up in the browser, as an additional (not LogCat) debugging resource. The button to this is found in the Run Window when you are running an app.
There two ways to find or unable it
1. Go to the View-> Tool Windows and you can choose whatever you want to put in Tool WindowBar
2. Go to the View-> And Tick or select on Tool Window Bars
After doing that you can see the logs for particular apps, And for AVD manager...
Go to the Tools-> AVD Manager

How can I remove the status bar in Android Studio activity preview

I find the "Preview" view in Android Studio super useful to see how my UI will appear on the device. The preview almost matches my in-app layout.
Our app has a fullscreen UI, which even hides the status bar. This works great on the device, but the preview insists on displaying the status bar. I haven't been able to figure out how to remove it editing an activity ui.
To be clear, I'm not talking about the App Titlebar, or the system buttons (home, back, etc).
Change your layout theme to NoTitleBar.FullScreen.
With Android studio version 3.3.2:
In Previews screen, Apply NoTitleBar.FullScreen theme to your layout.

Android Studio: refresh preview on picture change

I'm using Android Studio 1.0.2 and Gimp as external editor for the images.
When I want to modify an image, I select it, click on "Jump to external editor", apply changes, save it, go back to Android Studio and... close/open project to refresh the changes.
Is there a shortcut for this ? I cannot find any "refresh preview".
Even if I recompile, start the app, close/reopen the preview, I cannot see the changes on the preview (only on the execute app).
Well, it's really easy, indeed... didn't notice the button.
In the preview panel, upper right corner (on the right of the + and - buttons), there's a refresh button.
