Rendering issues are caused by your designer preview using higher API level than your current android API level. Just change your android version on your designer preview into your current version depending on your Manifest.

enter image description here

Adjust with your current API Level. If the API level isn't in the list, you'll need to install it via the SDK Manager.

And for the "Cannot resolve symbol R" error, A simple 'gradlew clean' and 'gradlew build' will do the trick.

Click on Build->Clean Project and that will perform a gradle clean operation.
