Missing attributes in layout editor in Android Studio

Question

I've got a problem with Android Studio version 3.2.1. I do not see in layout editor most of attributes like for example id. I have got this bug probably after Android Studio's update.

Answer 1

This worked for me.

• Exit android studio then make the below changes.

• Go to C:\Users\UserName.android and rename the build-cache folder to build-cache.bak

• Go to C:\Users\UserName.AndroidStudio3.2\system and rename these folders

  caches to caches.bak

  compiler to compiler.bak

  compile-server to compile-server.bak

  conversion to conversion.bak

  external_build_system to external_build_system.bak

  frameworks to frameworks.bak

  gradle to gradle.bak

  resource_folder_cache to resource_folder_cache.bak

• Open the Android Studio and open your project again.

No IDEA annotations attached to the JDK 1.8 (C:\...), some issues will not be found

Down of the activity_main.xml window there is "Design" tab and "Text" tab. Click on design tab, select an item and voila: attributes window is on the right
