Android Studio Doesn't Load the Preview Layout and there's no Error! but when I open an old project it loads that projects layouts.
I tried the older build tools and I also delete cache and stuff like that, I even removed entire android studio and reinstalled but it didn't fix it.
It seems to be happening since the fresh Windows 10 that I installed recently, and the the Android Studio V3.1.3.
Any solution?

After upgrading to arctic fox, I faced this issue. Opened a project I worked previously with older version of android studio was fine, but after restart its files became full with gibberish values. I thought its a hardware failure issue. But this happening again today with other projects, so I want a solution.
After working, closing and reopening the project the files contents became corrupted/changed:
File contents changed on previous project, showing difference with git:
ArcticFoxPatch2, Projects are built with gradle 7.0.2.
Solutions tried:
I have tried potential solution of invalidating cache and restart, but the files stays same.
Android studio warns and suggest wrong encoding but reloading with multiple other encoding did not resolve file contents.
What should be a solution?
Should I change hardware, eg ssd? or downgrade android studio?
Please run android studio like this.
Click Android Studio and click right button on mouse, then click "Run as Administrator".
Hope it helpful for you.
I have recently updated to Android Studio 3.3 and have noticed that my layout preview is at a low resolution.
Is there any solution to fixing this? This issue occurs only with the preview and in the design tab (excluding the blueprint) - running the app is fine.
Thanks
UPDATE: I deleted all of my Android Studio files, including the SDK (which was somehow installed on my other SSD). Then I re-downloaded Android Studio 3.3 and opened my project, only to find that the issue still remained.
A lot of users are facing problems until now with Android Studio 3.3. I don't think it's a problem with graphic card, maybe they will release a new update fixing the problems in the near future. For the moment would suggest you to work with design/blueprint, and test by running the app.
I solved the problem by adding this line to my IDE custom properties:
hidpi=false
Just go to Help -> Edit Custom Properties (Create new file if it doesn't exits)
Then add the following line and restart your IDE.
I've been updating my project to target sdk-api28 and I started setting up the latest MaterialComponents, but I'm now having issues with the layout Previewer within Android Studio.
The Preview just won't display the correct design for the material components, eg. adding style="#style/Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.OutlinedBox" on a TextInputLayout view won't change the design (no outlines) in the emulated preview, but it does look okay when running on a phone (got outlines).
Here's how it should and does look when running on phones:
But here's a screenshot of how it looks in the Android studio's Preview.
I'm having this issue on any project, and even on the Shrine tutorial app with the same setup from MDC Codelabs (MDC-103(Java) - Shrine).
This happens only on the preview. Any of these projects, when running on a phone or on the emulator within Studio, look okay.
As much as I could 'think through' this, the issue is I believe somehow connected to my Android Studio, emulator, or maybe build tools versions? Please, could someone point out if I'm missing something very simple?
My Android Studio (sdk, tools etc) versions that I have installed:
Android Studio 3.2.1
Android Emulator 28.0.16
Android Platform Version: API 28: Android 9 (Pie) revision 6
Android SDK Platform-Tools 28.0.1
Android SDK Tools 26.1.1
This issue happaned to me in android studio 3.2.
after one day everything gose fine.
what i do was invalidate and restart. reset android studio default settings
the clean. and exit android studio and open it again. and it works fine
this is a bug not related to you only.
While some users who experienced similar issues, could solve this with cleaning out Android Studio cache and config, this didn't work for me.
After looking into various possible fixes and tips, I solved this by updating to Android Studio 3.4 Canary which is the latest non-guaranteed-stable version of Android Studio, which you can get by either downloading a Preview release (here: developer.android.com) or changing your update preference (within Android Studio) ie. Update channel to Dev channel or Canary channel within Android Studio Settings > Appearance & Behaviour > System settings > Updates
I do think that this might not be a proper fix, but it's the only thing that worked out for me and solved the layout (design) preview not being able to display correct design.
If someone else runs into a similar issue, make sure to first try out clearing cache, using the Invalidate and restart under File menu or any other method. The Invalidate and restart feature clears out cache and restarts android studio, after which it will have to sync again and check for all dependencies, Sdk, tools etc.
Also to avoid this issue, before trying out anything else make sure you have proper and latest SDK Build-tools, Emulator, SDK Platform-tools, SDK Tools versions installed.
I'll leave this here as an answer for now, and update it if any new solutions come around.
Sorry, I'm here 3 years late... But this was my solution for this render problem... It has Material.Light theme by default. If you change it to Light.Bridge the problem is solved!
Hope it helps some one
I updated to the latest Android Studio 3.0 version, and no matter what I do I cannot get a project to be properly recognized by Android Studio.
For one, Android Studio projects typically have the Android Studio icon instead of the typical folder icon in the file system, when browsing for a new project to open.
For two, this is what my project structure looks like - no modules, and I also cannot select "android" view instead of "project".
For three, I cannot run, build, or clean the project at all.
Sometimes when I open a project I get this error:
And sometimes that error doesn't show up at all.
Has anyone encountered this? I'm tried uninstalling Android Studio and re-installing it, installing the new 3.1 Canary 3 version, the stable version, nothing works. I've deleted and recloned every repository - I've tried many, big and small, and none work. I can compile fine from the command line though.
Many of these repos are used by other people currently using Android 3.0 stable and 3.0 Canary 3, and I'm the only one having issues, so I'm very certain it's not a repository issue. And if it is, I probably am not allowed to make whatever changes would be needed to fix this issue.
I tried to speed up Android Studio by following some of the suggestions made in:
Android Studio is slow (how to speed up)?
Specifically, I changed build process heap size to 1021 and added -Xmx512m to the additional build process VM options. I restarted Android Studio and now am presented with this:
The screen gets stuck like this and doesn't change.
I have deleted the old Android studio installation and downloaded and Installed a new Android studio with no luck.
I had same issue, here is what I exactly did, I solved it by removing android studio with help of an uninstaller (iobit uninstaller actually) then I installed a new version of android studio in diffrent location/folder
