How can i solve this problem where the interface jumps all over the place?
This happens on Android Studio 1.5.1 (based on IntelliJ), but not on Java IntelliJ IDEA, which is weird.
Update:
It doesn't happen continuously, usually after a few minutes in the program.
A full reinstall and restoring default layout is not solving the problem.
However when resizing the window or when dragging the window outside the visible area of the screen, the layout goes back to normal and mostly when the mouse is moved the same issue appears again.
Update 2:
Since one of my 2 boot SSD's (in RAID0) gave up on life, I was forced to reinstall Windows and so lost all the programs on the C drive... On this new Windows install the interface issue with Android Studio is gone, so the problem was probably a wrong config file or a problem with Java.
I think you can reinstall it.Also you can click shift+F12 first.

I have met Android studio mouse problem a lot of times recently. I cannot use mouse to click anything in Android studio. All I can do is to use keyboard and shortcuts.
And only solution I found is to restart my whole computer. I have noticed that there is problem in other version of Android studio. So my question is that how can I deal with it?
I found that sometime I can reproduce this problem after I middle click the Editor Tab to close tab.
Just had this issue this morning. Android Studio wasn't responding to mouse click events. The odd thing was that it was responding to mouse position (tooltips, hover effects).
I updated to the newest version of Android Studio using Android Studio > Check for Updates and navigated the dialog menu with tab and spacebar. This did not solve the issue, but is probably worthwhile to try.
I'm not 100% certain what solved it, but I started pressing other buttons on my mouse (right-click, middle click, etc). Eventually it started accepting my left-click input again.
It happened to me with Intellij IDEA, when a dialog window has been opened by the IDE, but for some reason it is hidden behind the main window. You may try to find if there is any open dialog and close it.
I had the same issue on my Android Studio (4.1.1) on my MacBook Pro (macOS 11.1). For me, I just restarted my MacBook and the mouse click started working on Android Studio.
Not sure what caused it.
The mouse clicks thing and closing the android studio from task manager and open again did not help for me. im not sure why but CTRL+ALT+DELETE and going back to desktop fixed the problem.
Here is how I fixed this issue:
Use keyboard arrows and tab key to navigate to google assistant
Press enter to launch it
type and search "Power Menu : Software Power Bu"
navigate to install the app in results from playstore
Open the app after install and accept & set permissions
Open Power Menu now And you will get Android Power Options
Navigate to "Restart" and restart device
Viola!!! Now Emulator clicks works
In my case it happened, because one of the plugins started crashing in the loop, somehow disabling mouse click handlers.

My Android Studio is showing one or more preview windows generated at the position of the cursor in the Code Editor window. This preview overlays the original work behind it and pretty much renders my entire IDE useless or near useless. Although the preview will disappear upon mousing over portions of it, only to reappear seconds later. Is there some auto-preview window option that might be turned on by default that I have missed entirely?
I apologize if this has been asked before - I had not been able to find the answer previously and this has completely halted my development.
UPDATE: Restarting Android Studio, restarting my machine, and re-installing Android Studio all result in the same issue.
Check enable: File > Power Save Mode
Hope this helps
I used Eclipse before and I could easily stop logcat from scrolling, but I can't find same funcionality in Android studio. Anyone knows how to do it?
There's no dedicated button for this, but you can just click on / highlight some text around where you want to stop scrolling.
android studio have this feature
you just click on the line three times and you can selectd the line , it will stops scrolling.
I had the same issue. Simple solution:
In Android monitor, on the right, change No Filters -> Show only selected application.
Android Studio Stop scrolling log
Disable Scroll to the end
If not - you are able to scroll to necessary line manually and LogCat will not be automatically scroll to down
I actually just had a problem (in 1.2.2) where I couldn't keep it from scrolling. I tried all the tricks and proper methods mentioned here, but it kept scrolling out from under me.
Turns out there was a problem trying to connect to an emulator that had long since been disconnected, and it kept retrying. And every time it did, it reloaded everything causing logcat to refresh. So it wasn't REALLY scrolling, it just felt like it was because of how big the buffer is.
I unplugged my physical device (that was running along side the emulator), restarted Android Studio, plugged the physical device back in, and boom, it no longer kept "scrolling".
Hopefully this might help someone else. Because I was getting incredibly frustrated for a while, there.
Goodness, the trick is to search. Search for something within LogCat and then scrolling will stop. Tested: running Android Studio 1.1.0 against a real device (S5). Also, was ticking one line up and one back down until I then right clicked. Then it totally stopped. After that, I can remove the search and the scrolling is no longer automatic.
as already told in the title, I have an issue regarding the preview tool of Android Studio.
As I install the program, all works fine. I can create layouts and previewing them without any trouble. The problem comes when I restart my computer. Every time, the preview tool disappears (grey unselectable menu option and no other buttons to activate it around) and I can't manage to make it work again, unless I re-download Android Studio and I re-update the SDK. It's really annoying, because it's difficult to project a layout without restarting the computer, looking at what you are doing or loading it every time on the phone.
I've attached a screenshot, can anyone help me? Does anyone know a solution?
as you can see, there is no preview and no button to activate it
What about clicking on the design tab at the bottom of the editor ?
Does anyone know how to repair/clean install eclipse?
My version of Eclipse Juno with the ADT plugin has been behaving very strangely, but since Eclipse runs straight away without installing, I don't know how to reconfigure it to its initial state.
I was working on an Android layout when I noticed that lines of xml layout code was disappearing as I typed. The code itself was not being deleted, it just wasn't displaying - sometimes I couldn't even see the code I was typing or it was looking as if it was overwriting something else.
And the final straw just happened now. Somehow, my keyboard got stuck on the Ctrl button via eclipse. So after I quit the program, my Ctrl button was still pressed in. So trying to type "s" in notepad was bringing up the Save dialog and when I opened Word, it asked me if I wanted to start in safe mode since the ctrl key was being pressed. The solution was to restart my laptop (this bug was still present when I plugged a keyboard in before restarting)
Did you try eclipse -clean from command line.
If that doesn't help try reinstalling the ADT plugin by first removing it from Help -> About -> Installation Details and then reinstalling following the instructions at http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/installing-adt.html
Perhaps Ctrl getting stuck wasn't the final straw, but the whole problem? This sort of thing happens to me fairly frequently (in Windows). Control, Shift, Alt get stuck down causing confusing behaviour. What's actually happening is that for some reason the key-up event is getting lost, so the OS thinks the key is still down. It happens especially often if you're alt-tabbing into a VM, or using a hardware debugger (where the key up happens within the debug session).
The solution, whenever you think this is happening to you, is to just press all the modifier keys one at a time (left shift,right shift, alt, left control, right control etc) so the OS knows the state of them. No need to reboot the PC.
