Android Studio Project Structure screen looks broken - android-studio

I am migrating a project to the latest android studio and the project structure screen looks rather broken. E.g. I need to configure the usage of Gooogle APIs API Level 19 and cannot do that.... how could I fix that? Could it be my project contains some broken android studio metadata or so?

I believe your Project Structure to look fine. This is the latest Android Studio (0.5.4).
When you click on Modules tab you should be able to change to the latest SDK.

How to configure an iOS Application for Kotlin Multiplatform in Android Studio?

I want to add a Run/Debug Configuration for an iOS Application for a Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile application in Android Studio 4.1.2. However, there seems to be a problem with the configuration for iOS.
In the screenshot below you can see the problem. In the dialog "Run/Debug Configuration" Android Studio complains about
Error: Please specify Xcode project location in xcodeproj property of gradle.properties
Using the "Fix" button does not solve the problem. Android Studio just adds an additional xcodeproj to gradle.properties and the complains about a duplicate parameter.
I also tried different paths (relative and absolute) for xcodeproj. No luck.
If I remember correctly, it used to work out of the box. A new Kotlin Multiplatform Mobile project was automatically configured for Android and iOS. I'm not sure what changed. Probably something was updated.
Is this a bug with the KMM plugin? Or is there something I can do on my system to fix this?
don't do that with Android Studio.
Just open Xcode, click on 'open another project...', locate to the iosApp folder that named it when creating your project on Android Studio.
after that, just click run and have fun.
If the project doesn't run right away even on opening it from Xcode and shows the shared framework is missing, Then try generating the shared framework for iOS platform using terminal. Navigate to the project folder and execute
Command: ./gradlew packForXcode
Now the shared framework should have a xcode-frameworks product and you should be able to build and run the project through Xcode.
I fixed it by downgrading the Kotlin version from 1.4.30 to 1.4.21. You can check this thread here. To downgrade, download the version you want from the plugin store and choose the install plugin from disk as in the picture below
Upgrading Android Studio version to 4.2.1, KMM plugin version to 0.2.6, creating new KMM project with KMM plugin, the problem can be fixed automatically.
If you don't wanna use Xcode:
Look like there is some IDE issues in this versions, one option would be to downgrade the Kotlin version.
What worked for me was to download the latest Canary Android Studio and setup my KMM project there.
Hopefully soon this will be stable for the next versions

why in android studio 3.6.2 RecycelerView Does not work?

I updated Android Studio to version 3.6.2 and after adding the RecycelerView, I realized that it is not displayed in the design tab!
There are various reasons for Design tab fail to render layouts.
Try changing the API levels in the design views.
Clean build your project by going to Build > Clean build
Ensure you don’t have any file from SDK that is missing
Still if android studio is not able to render your layout then try by going File > Invalidate Cache/Restart

Android Studio 1.0.2 laout-land folder now showing

Using Android Studio 1.0.2 (Windows).
How to make a res/layout-land folder?
I try, it seems to work (no error messages), but the folder does not show up in Android Studio.
However, the folder does exist in the file system.
I have some old project (converted from Android Studio 0.9.x): They seem to work better.
I had the same problem. You have to change your structure explorer from Android(I think its default) to Project. You will see the layout-land folder under res.
You can change the structure explorer in Android Studio from Android to Packages:
g
Also after restarting the Android Studio application I was able to see the land folder.

How to know whether an existing project was made using android studio or eclipse?

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.

Android studio doesn't create project structure

I am new to Android studio. I tried to create my first project and there is no project structure only gradle files. What am I doing wrong? I keep getting these files with creation of another new project.
Update SDK via Android SDK Manager. You need all packages in Tools to be installed.
But even after doing so, I can't make it to auto generate resources. So I continue to deal with it...
I found what was my problem. I updated Android studio from version 1.x to 2.x. On official site is written that if you try to install version 2.x into same location Android studio might not work properly and there could be some unexpected behavior.
So just removing Android studio and then reinstaling it, worked perfectly.
