Where can I find the setting for automatically adding the closing tag in layout XML in Android Studio? For example, if I select TextView from suggestions, it should automatically close it with /> .
I used to get the ending tag automatically, but after updating Android Studio, I am not getting it anymore. I tried searching in Editor > Code Style > XML, but didn't find any relevant setting.
I am on Android Studio 3.5 RC 3.

All XML elements must have a closing tag It is illegal to omit the closing tag when you are creating XML syntax. XML elements must have a closing tag.
In XML and XHTML, a self-closing tag is a shorthand notation for an opening and closing tag in one. It's used to communicate lack of content in between the opening and closing tags. So, rather than typing <p></p> (with no space at all in between), you'd be able write <p/> .
bringToFront()” method will let you a perfect indicator view :) Also, there is another option to use a parent-children relationship views.
Could it be this one?
Insert closing tag on tag completion and Auto-close tag on typing </ ?
For what is worth, mine closes automatically.

I've both AD 3.4.2 and 3.5 RC 3 installed on my system. XML issues like this are only happening on 3.5+ versions. I've looked up at open issues and came to know that 3.5 causing many issues like No auto tags after completion, hangs/freezes during autocompletion and many more.
