Xamarin Android Designer shows a black screen instead of the application interface

Question

Today I started to learn the world of application development for Android using the Xamarin platform for visual studio 2017. I followed Xamarin's official tutorials and videos on YouTube, when I opened my first project and went to the designer,the designer's screen was fully black. This doesn't happen in any guide or article I have read. Since I'm new, I don't have much idea where the problem might be, I'm attaching appropriate pictures.

My Visual Studio's Screen: Desirable

Xamarin tutorial's Screen: Available

Thanks in advance :)

Answer 1

I had the same problem, and I found a good solution :

Try going to Tools -> Options and under Xamarin-> Android UI Designer, uncheck the option "Enable accelerated rendering".

Just close every xaml which are opened, and reopen there ! enjoy ! (I hope)
