Rule of thumb: don't fix the symptom, fix the problem!

You only get this when you are using custom views. In this case, in your custom view Java file, you should have a section like the below to give the renderer data to work with.

    if(!this.isInEditMode()) {         this.setTypeface(Typeface.createFromAsset(context.getAssets(),"appFont.otf"););     } 

This will set the typeface to "appFont.otf" when the renderer is trying to render your custom view in the preview window.

Hope this helps!
