Im learning Android studio now and encounter this problem with Layout Preview. I cant see phone frame.Ok, it's not big deal, but in result I see that the toolbar was not counted in design. For better understanding look at picture Virtual Device and Layout preview comparison. For layout preview and virtual device I picked Nexus 6. Screen sizes should be exactly the same. In the picture you can see the button in the layout preview. But in the virtual device the button is almost completely out of the screen bounds.
This is a link to my app

WORKS!!!
Click that 'eye' icon and select the 'Show layout decorations'. Done.
Try this,
Click on Preview-> Visibility Symbol which named as view options
There is one option, Show Layout Decorations , Select this options.
For reference find below image:
I hope its work for you.
You can try to select device and theme for your preview window see attached image

In the new version, you can see this feature in the 'layout validation' vertical bar on the right.

I am profiling a new application I am working with. I can see the captured pink circle, I want to find out where the view is ,In which fragment and where the click listener is defined.
Here I can only see the activity information.
It's a big project.
If you are using the latest version of Android Studio, when hovering over the green bar near the top, there should be a tooltip showing the Activity and Fragment.
Regarding how to find out the View, have you tried Android Studio's Layout Inspector? I don't know a single-click way to locate the listener but it may be feasible once you locate the view.
I have found a function recently in Android Studio named "pan screen". It is located at the right side of design window. But I didn't find any description for it.
If you zoom in your design much enough so it no longer fits on in your design area in Android Studio, you can hit pan icon and drag your design around.
The image you have shown in is Zoom and Pan Controls which allows you to zoom in and out of the design , Now the Pan button will help you to pan around to find the areas
that are unable or not visible to see when zoomed in.
Pan is swing in a horizontal or vertical plane, typically to give a panoramic effect or follow a subject.
Pan in Android studio, you can hold space bar and drag the screen to view those area currently is not visible.
When a user zooms in the layout so much that you are unable to see all items in the layout, you can click on the pan option and then afterwards move the layout without accidently moving the items in the layout.
As you can see in the image below, every time I open a project in Android Studio, the layout decorations option is deselected. How can I have it selected for default?
look on the top left of constraintLayout that you currently open, click on the eye icon and then click Show Layout Decorations. then you will be able to see it. but i don't know how to access it.
I think is not possible. I never see about that the solution
I am new to android development. The mouse pointer on the design page is as shown in the screenshot. I am not able to edit anything like increasing the height and width of the widget on this page. I might be able to do it in XML but I want it done here.
I want a normal mouse pointer where I can edit the widgets.
I tried looking at some of the blogs but it didn't help.
activity.xml - design
It worked after removing the cache files and restarting the android studio
Has the browser window been removed from the latest version of Xcode? I've seen this window in an iOS class I watched online and again in a book I have. I can't find anything in the View menu to turn it on.
I'm running Lion and the latest version of Xcode. I created a new project with Core Data turned on and then built it. I then clicked on .xcdatamodeld file and I get a graphic window with the default table in it.
Do you mean the project browser on the left? You enable that using the 'view' buttons on the right side of the toolbar.
The toolbar might be hidden though, so go to the view menu and select "Show toolbar" if needed.
Then select the fourth button from the right on the toolbar, it is the first button in the set of view buttons. This shows the Navigator View on the left of your screen, which has 7 selectors on the top. The leftmost will give you the project browser (project navigator), the one next to it is the symbol navigator.
I hate to be answering my own question again. I like to keep my answer rate at 100%. Since I didn't get a response here, I tried the Apple developer forums. It turn out the Xcode 4.* changed the interface and this series of windows no longer exist. The same functions can be found in other locations.
