Android Studio Electric Eel | 2022.1.1 Patch 1 - The latest one.
Everything was OK and either I hit a wrong short key combination and turned that on or it is a bug.
I have no idea what is that and definitely it's not useful for me, rather makes coding impossible when I need to select something since it just places the cursor everywhere.
What is this and how disable it?
This is really annoying.
Any help appreciated.
You have enabled Column Selection Mode. You can disable it under Edit -> Column Selection Mode

i have android studio 4.1.3 and i'm wondering if it has a setting that i can change so i can see debug in real time. I'm currently using visual studio which tells me in console where i'm wrong as i'm typing. I'm typing the code in vs and then pasting into android studio but it's getting tiresome especially if i have a lot of screens. Is there an easy way that i'm missing? And yes i have tried to google the question already so please don't tell me to google.
Unfortunately, android Studio does not currently have a live debug feature.
You do have a debug option on the top right corner of the screen if you need it.
The closest thing to what i was looking for is the "Dart Analysis". It's located at the very bottom next to the "terminal" button. I've tested and i see if i change something, it immediately notifies me in the "Dart Analysis window"
Android Studio keeps suggesting me to add App Indexing code.
Worse that it shows quick fix icon always when cursor is in line where there are no other problems.
Quick fixes become less useful because of need to care if it will not "fix" App Indexing problem.
Second - it's annoying and distract from real issues.
How to disable this "brilliant" feature?
Brilliant indeed, took me an hour to undo the changes it caused and to turn it off for good.
File -> Settings -> Plugins -> Firebase App Indexing -> uncheck.
Restart Android Studio and it will be gone.
Note that this will remove the plugin, don't know if there is a way to just disable the quickfix suggestion.
If you need Firebase plugin enabled. Uncheck this function: File->Settings->Editor->Intentions->"Android"\"Insert App Indexing API Code". This disables only annoing quickfix suggestion.
I know this is a bit old, but for anyone who's still struggling with this, you can hide the warning by adding tools:ignore="GoogleAppIndexingWarning" attribute to the application tag.
I installed Android Studio 0.8.14 and was immediately aware to the face that it doesn't show me suggestions, instead it only pops - "Cannot resolve symbol X".
I'm using it on OS X.
I already tried to google it and found the following solutions:
1) Check that the "File->Power Save Mode" isn't selected.
2) In "Preferences" - that the "Android" intentions are selected.
3) Reinstalling it, after deleting all the cookies and local library files.
None of them solved it for me :/
If you put the cursor on the word with the error, a little icon should appear to the left of that line of code. If you click on that you should see the suggestions.
i use mac and had the same problem. i figured out that the android studio does show compile suggestions. What you have to do is click on the word not just move the cursor on it! To accept it, use alte + Enter.
this is my first post on Stackoverflow and i hope it works for u;)
Luckily this question is not relevant anymore since google has released Android Studio 2 on Frbruary 2016. I recommend using that version since it's much more stable and works faster then the 1.x.x versions.
I'm using Intellij IDEA 12 for Android Development, and I met a very strange problem. Whenever I open a file or a dialog (such as Logcat). The cursor switch to replace mode automatically, I have to click the INSERT key on keyboard every time to switch back to normal insert mode.
It's very weird since I haven't met this problem before, even when I'm using Android Studio and IDEA Communication Edition 12.
Could you please help me solve this problem, thank you!
I also had the same problem on Intellij IDEA 13.
That happened to me after changing my theme.
I couldn't find how to fix it in Settings.
But I deleted the config file( you have to enter your licence key again after removing it ),
then changed my theme again.
Now, it works perfect.
I've recently moved from VS to eclipse and am using the intellisense functionality. I came across a tutorial a week ago telling me to add 'source' directories to the android sdk to improve the speed of intellisense.
Anyways i still find it a bit sluggish and i was curious if there was a way to change how it functions from a 'remove suggestions' from the list to a 'highlight the most accurate so far'. This I BELIEVE would solve some of the lag issues.
I just answered a similar question over here:
How do I defeat Eclipse's autocomplete feature?
"There's a bug in Eclipse 3.6.1 that affects code completion (Code Assist). There is supposed to be a patch that will be in 3.6.2 when it's out, but this post from the Android Dev Google group shows a work around that patches 3.6.1. I've tried it and it makes a world of improvement.

It's called content assist in Eclipse and you can change almost everything in it.
You find it under Eclipse => Preferences => Java => Editor => Content Assist
Doesn't seem like at this point in time it is possible to duplicate this functionality. I'll keep an eye on this answer set should anybody choose to prove me wrong.
