I have opened Android Studio on my second screen, then close it and disconnect the display. Next launch on Android Studio is in the secondary screen even the display is disconnected and isn't able to move on main screen.
I had the same problem. Used the instructions from https://superuser.com/a/98035, ie. "maximized" the Android Studio window, pressed Alt + Spacebar, selected (with keyboard arrows) option "Move" and then pressed right arrow. Window snapped to my cursor and I was able to move it to desired position and maximize on correct screen.
I tried this successfully:
Open Android Studio and be sure is not minimized
Display Settings - Scale and layout
Change from 100% to 125% and back it to 100%

I can't seem to get the soft back and home buttons to show at the bottom of the Android emulator, the way they would display in an actual phone or tablet. I have seen answers to this, but I have applied them (the main one is unchecking "Has Hardware Buttons"):
And they do not work. I think it's because the soft buttons already display on the right-hand side of the emulator, so they don't need to show on the actual emulator screen:
How do I move the soft back and home buttons from the right side of the emulator, to the actual emulator screen?
Go to settings and then search for "system navigation", then select 3 button navigation:
I have somehow pressed a key combination that has disabled my ability to view two tool windows (Project and Structure) at the same time on the left side of the Android Studio screen.
I want to be able to visually see both tools at the same time (which was the default until my key combo somehow disabled it) like this:
I have searched in vain for the magic key combo or menu item to turn this back on. I have tried reloading the default layout configuration, but that does not work. I have tried all the options from the "Window" menu, that also doesn't appear to manage the view for allowing the second tool window you click on to show up nested under the first one.
I remember seeing something about this once on SO but I can't find it.
Help!
Just drag and drop the 'Structure' tab from where it is (left pane, but on the top) to the bottom part of the left pane (close to 'Build variants' on your screen).
Here's the photo
Edit: You can as well just right click the 'Structure' tab -> 'Move to' -> 'Left bottom'.
The problem is that they cannot be both on the top left.
Android Screen Recorder is a great tool for capturing the Android Screen but is there a way to highlight the clicks and Taps as well while we navigate the App on the Android Phone/Emulator screen?
you can do that by going to your emulator settings and activate developer mode
Open Settings on the Android device.
Scroll to the very bottom of the menu and select ‘About phone’.
Scroll to the very bottom of the menu and select ‘Build number’ repeatedly. After the 7th or 8th click you should see a message telling you that you are a developer.
Click back to return to the main Settings menu.
There should be a new ‘Developer Options’ option above to ‘About phone’ option. Select ‘Developer Options’.
Under the ‘Input’ heading there is a ‘Show touches’ option. Selecting this will show all touch events on the screen including pinch to zoom gestures and so on.

I have probably hit some setting in Android Studio. So my problem is, my Preview window hides every time I click somewhere in the xml code.
Obviously I want the preview available the entire time I'm in the xml editor so that I can view my changes, and also without having to click the Preview button all the time.
Any ideas?
Found the answer. The tabs in Android Studio seem to have different amount of actions attached to them, but you can access some more if you go to Window -> Active Tool Window (with the preview tab selected/focused) and then click "Docked Mode", an option previously unavailable in the tabs options. When Docked mode is activated for the tab it is now available in the tab options!
I need preview layouts when writing code.
click [android studio] > [preferences] > [layout editor]
uncheck [Hide preview window when editing non-layout files.]
It works for me.
A shortcut is also available for seeing preview in android studio
press ctrl + tab and a switcher window will open
you can select preview from there using arrows key
Click on View -> Tools Window - > Preview, on the left of preview have small setting icon, click on it and select Pinned Mode.
It works for me.
My eclipse's（ADT bundle Mac OSX） console view and logcat view are located at the right side of the screen. When activated, they will cover my code editor. （When I maximize them they will automatically move to the bottom, but when minimized they fly back to the right side again.）
status 1:normal ,them cover the editor,
status 2: when I max them, look like good, but
status 3:when minimize them, backto status 1
You can click the title of the tab and drag it to a new location (in this case the bottom of the page)
I know this is an old thread but it comes up in the top google results so I thought I'd reply with a solution. I was having the same issue as the OP, even when docking on the bottom of the editor Console was still minimizing to the left side.
I fixed this inadvertently while fixing another annoyance (non re-sizable toolbar sections).
Go to Window->Preferences->General->Appearences
Change theme to Windows 7
Restart Eclipse
Dock to bottom of screen and minimize.
This worked for me, hope it helps someone else out there.
First, make sure it the view is open. Then, click on the Logcat tab and drag it to the bottom of the page. Do this for the Console tab and any other tab that you want at the bottom of the page. Then, minimize them and open them again. They should remain at the bottom of the page.
It looks like right now you have it in the same pane as where the code normally resides.
Since Eclipse Neon (4.6, June 2016), you don't need to drag each tab individually. You can just drag the empty space after the tabs to move the whole stack of views.
You can do this both when the stack is minimized/maximized and when it's not.
In Eclipse version 2020-09 (4.17.0), one can reset the display by selecting "Window >> Perspective >> Reset Perspective"
First, minimize the whole output console. Then select the location by single click dragging it down to the bottom of the page & then open it & select it by dragging it from the top in the required area.
Window->Perspective->Reset Prespective will solve that
