Has anyone else faced this issue? Is there any solution for this?
Before refactor:

It seems the default scheme leaves out the "attribute" property in the arrangement rules. Adding them back in works like a charm for me.
The correction can be made in: Preferences > Editor > Code Style > XML
Just adding more details .
This is a known issue with android studio from Android Studio 3.5 Canary 8 . It should get fixed in next version as this turned out to affect large number of developers .
You can see status of the bug here
Also the solution is

Edit: This is now fixed in Android studio version 3.5.2
ctrl + alt + s
Search XML
I wanted to do the same steps as the first answer, but I just needed to change the default scheme to project.
I hope that you also solve it this way . Sorry for my English !
If you have a custom code style defined, you have to specify a type for each rule: tag or attribute.
It seems like after the update, if you do not specify a type, the rules will be applied to both. Not sure if it is a bug, but that's how i fixed.
This does not work on 3.5
After adding the attribute type to each rule, it worked
Please follow these steps for Windows version of "Android Studio 3.5"
1: Click on the File in the Menu.

When I installed Android Studio in my Windows 10 pc, then icon for Android Studio used to be this :
But after a few days, icon has changed itself into this :
How to fix this?
In your taskbar, right click -> Properties -> Untick Use small taskbar icons. (With similar meaning, I don't know the exact original text in English).
The icon file of Android Studio, $ANDROID_STUDIO/bin/studio.ico, is an icon file containing 6 pictures, using the size of visible area to decide which one to use. Asking the taskbar NOT to use small icon will solve your issue.
This bug has been fixed, just delete the studio.ico file and it will work.
How to use emoji in the Android source code in Android studio or IntelliJ in Windows OS? I want to use emojis in the logcat print messages by choosing emojis from the context-sensitive popup. I could not find the right plugin.
I need the plugin that is used in the picture below. But don't know how to achieve the same. When I googled I get references to emoji-compat for showing emoji in the android application's soft keyboard dialog. But I want to use emoji in the source code in the comments and logcat only.
Update: I thought it is an android studio feature. But it is available as soft touch keyboard in windows 10. "WIN + ;" is the shortcut for launching the same.
Now, my next question is how to make the emojis display colorful in windows android studio's code editor and logcat like the way it appears in the Mac.
In Mac it appears like this:
In windows it appears like this in the editor after adding the emoji:
On mac position the cursor in any text field you'd like to insert an
emoji, like posting a tweet for example.
Use the keyboard shortcut Command - Control - Space bar to access
emoji.
Double-click the emoji you'd like to use and it'll be inserted where
you left your cursor.
In your screenshots, the emojis appear to be rendered in a monochrome version in your editor. I've experienced a similar problem with the display of emojis in IntelliJ on macOS.
At first, I thought it was due to a character encoding setting. This turned out to be unrelated as my file encoding is set to UTF-8 everywhere.
After living with the problem for quite some time, the solution I've found to have emojis display right for me is to set the fallback font (for symbols not supported by the main font) to "Apple Color Emoji" for both the editor and the console.
The corresponding UI path for this setting is listed below.
Preferences > Editor > Font
When a color scheme font setting overrides the editor font, then the following paths can apply.
Preferences > Editor > Color Scheme > Color Scheme Font
Preferences > Editor > Color Scheme > Console Font
"Show only monospaced fonts" will need to be disabled temporarily to show the emoji font under "Fallback font".
Additionally, I made "Paste without Formatting" be my default paste option so that emojis can be pasted directly, without risk of being transformed into Unicode escape sequences.
The result is that emojis display as expected for me throughout the IDE, making a big difference to my coding pleasure!
The code editor now correctly handles Unicode emoji characters. On Mac OS X emoji characters are rendered as colored images. On Windows and Linux emoji are rendered as monochrome characters.
