Is there a way to disable the new multi preview of layout added in Android-Studio 3.6?
I think it takes too much time to load.
Last but not least, it seems not possible to change the local and the theme applied to the preview, as it was possible before.
Seems that it gets better in AndroidStudio 4.0
Also this setting is useful:

Design preview console of my android studio stuck at loading. I can't find the solution for that even and reinstalled it.
I had faced the same problem a long time ago.
So what you need to do is go to the View option on the top taskbar. Choose the Tool Windows suboption and inside it remove and add the Preview panel.
View>>Tool Windows>>Preview
This fixed the problem for me. If it does for you as well, do let me know.
I've just installed an update to android studio and now I see version 3.0.1
When I look to a toolbar I see that icons became two times smaller than usual.
Is it possible to make them bigger as it was before?
As said in this comment it is an Intended Behavior in version 3.0. But this behavior can be reverted by setting the system property hidpi.allow.fractional to true in file ~AndroidStudioHOME\idea.properties and restart Android Studio.
You can open and edit this file directly from IDE by Help | Edit Custom Properties menu:
hidpi.allow.fractional=true
P.S. But, for example, I'm already used to this size and it seems to me quite comfortable. There is more space for text, especially at 13 inches laptop.
Update Fixed in Android Studio 3.1. Icons become bigger as earlier
Have the same issue after updating to 3.0.1. As of Google Issue Tracker, it seems like a known issue & it is in assigned state. For a temporary fix, we can adjust the UI font of Android Studio from settings as below.
File -> Settings
Appearance & Behavior -> Appearance
Under UI Options, select Override default fonts
Set the size (I am setting size 24 to make the icons & text bigger)
Note : The above steps will make the Android Studio UI ugly but until
a patch is released, we might need to adjust to this.
After I used to the small icons there's a surprise after update to Android Studio 3.1. Icons became big again :)
I use myeclipse (version :myeclipse-2015-stable-3.0 or myeclipse-2016-ci-7) in windows 7, and I want to zoom in/out the fonts while editing by accelerate keys ctrl+ =/-,but they don't work.
I don't want to use the way that windows--preference--color and fonts--...to change fonts size because it isn't convenient,there is no accelerate keys confilcts also,and after changing accelerate keys,they still don't work.
Any ways to solve this problem?
Those commands don't seem to be defined in the General->Keys preferences page, for text editing, but even though they are defined in eclipse Mars (on which MyEclipse 2016 is based), they don't work there either. I can't find an eclipse bug for that, though there probably should be one.
However, I did find a solution, if you're willing to update to MyEclipse 2017 (the CI stream or the Stable stream), since the zoom function works fine there.
I'm currently using Xamarin Studio and have a comfortable enough setup so that I can put my various pads (output, unit tests, solution tree, etc.) on different screens. I like it and I'd like it to stay the same wether I'm debugging, running tests or coding.
But right now, xamarin studio handles it himself and switches to the Debug view layout when debugging, which changes everything to their default (since I've never really changed it).
Is it possible to tell Xamarin Studio to either :
- Never switch layouts?
- Set which layout is used for each situation (and I would just use my custom layout)
I've tried deleting all layouts and XS just recreates them. No dice here.
I've tried switching to my layout when debugging, hoping it would remember "this is my debug layout now". No chance either.
And I'm hoping I won't have to change each separate layout, because first it'll take a stupid amount of time, and also because if I ever decide to make a change, i'd have to set it up over 5 different view layouts which is just ridiculous.
Note : I'm using the latest version of Xamarin of the stable channel.
So, does anyone know a way to keep one single layout for all situations?
Unfortunately, no, it is not possible with the current version of Xamarin Studio.
I read through both the preferences as well as the documentation. I even tried to create my own custom layout by navigating to "View" -> "Save Current Layout". Then I selected my new custom layout when I started a debugging session, hoping it would persist to the next one. But alas, the "Debug" view was chosen automatically.
This would probably be something you could bring forth as a suggestion of improvement to the Xamarin team. You can do so using their bugzilla.
Just wanted to know if it is possible to open regular XIB files from new Xamarin's storyboard editor? Switching back and forth between Xamarin and Xcode is a bit inconvenient, and the new editor looks really nice; however, Storyboards have a few drawbacks and it is a pain to use them for our projects.
Any ideas re availability of this?
The plan is to add support for editing .sib files in future versions of Xamarin Studio.This will likely not happen in time for the first release with the iOS Designer (i.e. version 4.2), but I think it would be reasonable to expect that version 4.4 will have support for editing .xib files.
As of right now, no. I think it might be because of the complexity of the underlying XML but I'm not 100% sure. You can always create or upvote it on uservoice: http://xamarin.uservoice.com/forums/144858-xamarin-suggestions/suggestions/2700302-a-monotouch-xib-editor.
Using stand-along Xib files is now available, you can learn how to do it here -
