while adding images to drawable folder using image asset i come accross this
How to solve this issue?
there is not any problem its the new window to add image asset android studio designed.
choose the image for asset type and give the path. then the android studio will generate different size of your image asset in different mipmap folders.
its a lot easier than before. if you dont want to use mipmap folders just copy and paste your file into youre desired folder in android studio manually.

I am trying to add images to mipmap folder by Batch Drawable Import but images automatically come under drawable folder as shown in screenshot. Can anyone tell me how to import images under mipmap folder?
Screenshot::
Open you file explorer and just move drawable files you want to move and paste into mipmap directory, and do not use any numerical number with image name.
I am trying to add a source image to an ImageView in Android Studio. I placed the image in the res/drawable folder. I have the same image placed in mdpi,hdpi,xhdpi,xxhdpi,and xxxhdpi.
However when I try to add the path to the image in xml it does not even show up. I have attached a screenshot of what I have.
Also I tried to clean and rebuild the project and still I cannot access the images in the drawable folder.
I should add that if I try and add the images to the mipmap folders. It works just fine and I can set the path of the images to mipmap.
You created the extra drawables folders inside of the main drawable folder instead of using the existing folders in the res/ directory. (See the mipmap folders?)
Also, don't need png extension in the XML, just the filename
In your XML remove file extension and replace . with _
android:src="#drawable/podcast_ac_new_2_9"
I used the freely available Simple 9patch generator available online, to generate a logo for my app's splash screen.
But how do I place it in Android Studio drawable folder?
Do I have to make separate drawable folders like ldpi, hdpi etc?
I tried that but when I try to set the image on a layout, it gives me an error saying
Cannot resolve symbol #drawable/something
You need to make sure, you have place the images in the correct folder. Here's an example,
Original post: Add 9-patch image to Android Studio
Get rid of the .9 in #drawable/splash.9. It is just #drawable/splash. .9.png is the file extension, and file extensions are not used in references to resources.
I've created a nine-patch image using the Simple Nine-Patch Generator. This creates a directory with a res-folder, containing folders for each pixel-density-version of the image.
In Eclipse with ADT one could simply drag & drop these folders in the res-folder of your project.
This would seem like a no-brainer, but how do I add these generated nine-patch images to Android Studio?
I'm using Android Studio 1.0.1.
If your problem is that you cant find were the drawables are you could eaisly select pakages from the top left side in the project structure there you can find the res folder and you could eailsy paste the 9 path in the corresponding folders
I am new to Android development. To implement a photo gallery app, tutorial said to add images to res/drawable and access them via R.drawable.image1 .. etc. But there is no drawable folder default in eclipse, then I created a one and add images. But cannot access images, there is no option in R.drawable. as "image1"
Any idea ?
you should create "drawable" folder under "res", and you'd best place png image files in that folder. When accessing these image files programmingly.set an image for an ImageView for example:
Drawable imgDrawable=getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.yourImageFileName));
imgView.setImageDrawable(imgDrawable);
Sometimes the drawable folder is not created by default Instead it will have "drawable-hdpi","drawable-mdpi" and "drawable-ldpi".These folders are for placing images for various screen densities to support different resolutions.Your "drawable folder" is for baseline medium density.
In your case create a folder named "drawable" under "res" and place your image inside that folder and you will be able to access it using R.id.imagename .Try refreshing the project and check whether you have created the drawable folder under the res folder.Also check the case of the folder name that you have created.
I faced same problem , but when i added those images again in jpg format it worked.
Might work for you too.
