Android Layout Manager Attributes - android

[Layout screen as an bug example1While developing my android app I deleted linear layout by selecting it in layout manager by mouse and pressing delete button after that android studio stopped giving me auto complete code suggestions in XML also layout manager is not showing all attributes associated with with a UI component Please guide me how to fix this issue

The xml code might not be in proper format, like missing any closing bracket or something else, first you should check that.
Other steps to try:
Build -> Clean Project -> Rebuild Project
File -> Invalidate Caches and Resatart
File ->Manage IDE Settings -> Restore Default Settings (it will reset your IDE, as if it is newly installed.)

Android xml layout is greyed out

error
My xml layout in android studio is greyed. I can't add any view into it. Even if I try to add then I can't change any constraint.
Here is my layout code: https://github.com/Aditya425/parse-project/tree/main
Don't Worry about that!
Just Connect your Device with Internet, Close your Project & Re-open it, it will automatically fix.
If not done, try to Sync Project with Gradle Files after reopening.

XML layout is different once loaded

I've a layout with a 16 buttons, every button has an image and a textview under the image.
I've this buttons in a particular order,but once is loaded in the activity the order is not the last i've edited but remain the previous!
Why in the editor of eclipse is correct and on runtime is different?!?
Thanks!
Sometimes a clean and rebuild is enough to solve your problem. Also you will get a warning on your XML preview that you need to build your project if you changed any code in a custom view for it to draw it properly.
Uninstall previous app from your android device (if compiling from android device).
Then Go to Project->Clean . Then run your project .
First of all Uninstall the application from your device .
go to Project > Clean. then you can run your project again
it will be remove your error strong text

The project target is not set. Right click project, choose Properties | Android

I am importing an Android application in Eclipse as a Gradle build. The application is build and runs fine. When I try to see the layouts defined in XML I can, but when I switch over to the Graphical Layout I get
The project target is not set. Right click project, choose Properties | Android.
What I did:
Right click Project->Properties to find the Android tab but is not there.(*see picture 3)
On the Graphical Layout there is a switch that is supposed to be pointing to the latest API available. Instead it says: Null(*see first picture)
When I try to change it I get Resource ...... does not exist prompts (*see second picture).
How can I open the XML layouts in the Graphical Layout?
please check whether set SDK location.as follows:
Eclipse -> Preferences -> Android
LEFT click (not Right) and select Android worked for me.

Android SDK Cant See Graphical Layout

When I open MainActivity.xml file in my layout folder of android project and click on graphical layout I can see only a gray blank screen. The android UI is not visible in my eclipse. When I searched google and stackoverflow I found I should open the .xml file with android layout editor but this option is not available in my eclipse. And when I tried to add this option from preference I don't find this option.
Go to Preferences -> General- >Editors->File Associations.
If Android layout editor is missing click on Add as shown,
After clicking on Add select Android Layout Editor and then click on OK.
Close Eclipse and restart. Otherwise this will not work.
SECOUND CHANSE I DID TI
1.WORKSPACE FOLDER ALL CONTENT OR FILE DELETE
2. OPEN THE ECLIPS

How to get the graphical layout Window back in Eclipse for Android Application Design?

I dont know what happend, but i lost the Graphical Layout Window of the XML Layout that we are using in Eclipce to design the Android Application.
I want that Design window back.
I can see the xml code and every thing. . . But i want the Design Editor that is available as by default in the Eclipse after integration of the Android in it.
So how to get it back ???
No one has answered my question, but by searching on Eclipse I got the answer:
I have to right click on the XML code layout and then select Open With Layout Editor. It will show me the Graphical Layout Editor for my Application and now I am able to see the graphical view on the XML layout files.
Do you not see the "Graphical Layout" tab on the bottom of the open xml file?
Just follow this pattern : Package Explorer ---> res --> Layout ---> activity_main.XML Open activity_main.XML
if you are using the dark juno color theme the tabs at the bottom don't show up.
change back to one of the original color themes and poof they're back.
In Eclipse,just click check for updates and after that it will restart the eclipse and now u can see the graphical layout,the problem was in ADT plugin only.
If you want to open all the xml files in layout editor, go to Preferences->general->editor->FIle associations
Change the default editor in the selections
For me, after reading endless non-viable solutions (including remove and re-import the project, click the 'open with...' menu and the like) the solution was stupidly simple. I was opening the project with the standard Eclipse studio. The solution was to open Eclipse via the ADT bundle directory, that is the version of the Eclipse studio packaged and installed with the Android ADT. Using THAT shortcut to Eclipse, an Android project opens and runs (and edits) as a native Android project using appropriate Android tools.
The answer is to right-click and select open DEFAULT Editor...Then on bottom of editor two tabs will change on the lower right. Click on Graphical Editor.
Resolved installation ADT http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/installing-adt.html
This contain all preview layout and XML editor
You can also, in the project explorer on the left, go to res, layout and double click on activity_main.xml
