I'm trying to set up Flutter using Android Studio, and I'm setting up a Virtual Device using the Android Virtual Device window under Tools. It specifies in these instructions to change the Emulated Performance: Graphics
setting to Hardware - GLES 2.0
, but the window won't let me change the setting from Automatic
. Can anyone explain how I can change this setting? Thanks!

I did some more research and found that while creating AVD if you choose default/existing device definition on first screen, you will not be able to edit graphics drop down. The solution is to create a "New Hardward Profile" while creating AVD and use your new profile. Now, you will be able to edit "Grahics" drop down.
An Android Virtual Device (AVD) is a configuration that defines the characteristics of an Android phone, tablet, Wear OS, Android TV, or Automotive OS device that you want to simulate in the Android Emulator.
SDK Build Tools are not installed If it fails then you may have to install it again. You look at the build tab at the bottom of the screen, it will display the error message and option to install the Build tools. Install it and you should be able to see the AVD Manager. Another way is to go to the SDK Manager.
Google play images that run on a device like pixel or nexus 5(x), can only accept automatic graphic acceleration. so if you don't need Google play features then you can select another images
