After developing in Eclipse for several years I have switched to Android Studio since two days. Although I have read as much as possible about it I still have one big problem: I can not find the place to add, change, configure or whatever about the so called artifacts.
I have tried several ways from creating a new project from scratch to importing a complete Eclipse projects.
Although the IntelliJ documentation is clear about it, I can not find it.
The project structure in all cases only shows three parts in the structure:
SDK location, Project and app. I have searched them all but no artifacts.
Who can help me?
The artifact description is in the IntelliJ IDEA manual that is reached by selecting menu item 'Help, Help Topics' in Android Studio.
However, according to JetBrains Support the Android Studio documentation topics need to be updated and the Artifacts page should not be available in Android Studio.

.0. I imported a project to the PC (specifically here = generated Ktor project, although I've seen such behavior before with Compose Desktop projects)
Generated here
.1. IntelliJ Idea doesn't recognize it as a project
When I open the same project on Android Studio = it works fine
Here is how the project supposed to look in IntelliJ (this Ktor project I build manually with IDE and it worked):
.2. I was able to make the project folders visible to IDE:
Repair IDE->Rescan Project Indexes->Reopen Project
Now It look like this:
But IDE still doesn't see my modules properly
How do I properly configure the imported project?
Note: I've read IntelliJ does not show project folders
And tried methods described there. But a lot of answers are hard to replicate as IntelliJ interface changed.
Edit: I've fixed it with Manage Idea Settings->Restore Default Settings. Now projects are opened properly. Thank everyone for your time.

Given an existing Android Studio (4.0.1) project that builds and deploys properly and that has an associated SVN repository, I would like to create a separate Android Studio project and get that to also build properly. The purpose is to 1) Prove that the SVN repository is complete (has everything needed to get a build working), 2) Document the steps required to get this Android Studio project out of SVN and building.
Selecting Get from Version Control from Android Studio's welcome screen, I can specify the SVN repository and checkout:
Take the default/latest format for SVN:
And indicate I'd like to make a project out of the contents of the SVN repository:
Then I'm presented with an option that I'm unsure how to answer:
I have tried them all, none successfully. Rather than go into the details of each here, I would like to learn about which option makes sense in which situation.
The original project was created 5 or more years ago with Android Studio's 'start a new project' wizard. I've use Android Studio's default build stuff all along, and upgraded Android Studio and the various plug-ins when nagged sufficiently. I'm not sure what the important build artifacts are (or artifacts critical to a clean import are), and if those artifacts are indeed in the SVN repository and up to date. I can copy the project in the file system and rename things to get it to build, but creating another instance is not the question; the source must be exclusively the SVN repository.
I'm eager to make this question complete, so please do me the favor of specific criticism in the comments so I may improve the question or remove it, as needed.
The optimal person to answer this question would know much more about how Android Studio builds work than I do. I have strictly "cookbook" level knowledge. So without significant study, I am unable to validate intricacies of the process without more knowledgeable people to help.
The last Import Project dialog from this SO question only appears if the contents pulled from SVN are not a complete project.
In other words, if what gets pulled is a complete project, the project just opens, without having to go through any other questions and/or selections. Otherwise, other logic takes over and Android Studio tries to create a legit project for you from the bits it finds.
The solution is to make sure that the check-in from the original working project is complete, including gradle files. If Android Studio is set to view the "Android" artifact view, then everything in the list should display in the VCS "included in source control" and "checked-in" font color.
In Android Studio V4.1.3 (build no. Al-201.8743.12.41.7199119) The Flutter UI guides for widgets and methods not showing at all even though it is enabled in the settings. Please, be kind to see the screenshot =>
no Flutter UI guides
I have Flutter Plugin V55.1.1 and Dart Plugin V201.9335 installed.
All your help is highly appreciated.
Thank you
You might be creating the new Flutter project and selecting Java for Android. But when you select Kotlin and create project. The issue will be fixed.
And if you want your old projects to be converted to Kotlin, just open the terminal in that project and run this
run flutter create -a kotlin .
The dot(.) at the end is also important it will generate the Kotlin files in current directory.
After this, just re-open the project, you'll get the guides.
I have the same android studio version as you and Flutter Plugin V55.1.1 and Dart Plugin V201.9380 installed. Getting the same issue. I have even tried to enable and disable the "Show UI guidelines for build methods" in Setting > Language & Frameworks > Flutter, but nothings work.
I cloned flutter/sample from GitHub and it seem that the UI guides is showing on that samples project.
My current (kinda easy cheat) solution right now is by creating a New Flutter application project via VS Code. And when I open that flutter project on Android studio, the UI guides is there. I have configure my VS Code with the recommended setting for Dart code.

I'm pretty new in flutter development but I'm pretty sure there might be something that we can configure on Android Studio seeing that generated project file from VS Code does shows the UI guideline. If someone know how do let me know. Cheers!
I am currently using some libraries (e.b. material design lib) to create apps.
I want to set the minimum SDK to 5.0, but it cannot be done because the version of that library is higher.
My question is how can I know the list of installed/non-installed dependencies(e.g. com.android.support:design) provided by Google in android studio(like SDK manager) or not?
Honestly, I was using the Eclipse IDE for developing android apps, and now I switch to Android Studio. It is difficult to me to use Android Studio. Is there any resources to learn more detailed about the usage of Android Studio?

At first make sure in the left panel Project is selected.
Then right-click on your appropriate project name and select Open Module Settings
There you will see the Dependencies tab that you were searching for. There you will explore the options to add or remove dependencies or shifting them up or down in the easiest way. Hope you will find Android Studio more interesting then Eclipse gradually.

The official android developer site of Google is well enough to learn Android Studio in details. Everything is there. Still you can also go for tutorialspoint tutorial about Android Studio.

I have got some open source projects which I want to have a try. But I want to use Eclipse if the project was made using eclipse; otherwise I would like to use Android Studio.
So how can I know by viewing the source code about the IDE used for the development of a particular project? Is there any metadata in any file which stores the IDE information?
I believe that Android Studio sometimes includes gradle related files. That's how I would check.
