I am new in android studio, and i just installed the version 3.0 canary 5 because it's supports Kotlin (and i want to learn kotlin). When I create i new project, the design editor seems to not work properly. When i drag a a component like a button, he just go on the corner and become not visible. But when i run the app and view it in my android phone it works correctly. The problem i guess is just with the design editor of android studio.
Screenshot of the problem
Any ideas?

Hi I have switched to a new PC and downloaded Android Studio. The design preview of Xml files were fine at first but after I added a device it started to grey out in a couple of seconds and this only happens to my main xml file.
Here is the main xml preview
How I want it to look like
I tried changing API levels and the device didn't do much for me. I also tried changing theme to Light Mode
try to unistall and reinstall android studio.
it seems an IDE bug.
After the Android Studio 3.6 Upgrade the Design/Text button has dissappeared in my layout preview. Preview is not showing up at the right end. Also it is not exist in View --> Tools Windows.

Greetings.
I am learning java and android development for last two days. I am using android studio version 3.1.3
the welcome screen interface and open project screen that i used yesterday was different.
Today i am seeing a new screen and new way of opening android project.
below are the screen shots.
when i click on create new project the below screen appears
please guide me through this.
Delete the Android Studio folder in the user's folder. Let Android Studio download everything back and the view will become normal.
Going to events on the home screen and clicking 'enable android support' that this fixed my issue, however I did need to re-install all the SDK versions I previously used.
After upgrading to Intellij Idea 2017.3 and to Android Studio 3.1 canary 6 I noticed the project tool window doesn't show the little lock icons next to files anymore.
This is very useful to have a bird's eye view on the visibility of each file (public, package protected...).
Is there a setting to bring them back?
Marco, please check this comment on YouTrack: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-172513#comment=27-2150075
Trying to use a custom font with Android Studios (Inconsolata), but Android Studio is just rendering it as a bunch of As. Is there any fix to this?
This is a known issue with several possible workarounds. One option is to configure Android Studio to run under JDK 7 or JDK 8 by editing Info.plist and changing the JVMVersion, as described in the last comment to the issue.
Updating to the latest version of Android Studio fixed this issue.
