Blank/No xml preview in Android Studio

Okay, Finally found defect

Tip:

No error shown in IDE.

We can still find IDE Log for more details Help>Show Log in Explorer you can find idea.log. Check for error in idea.log

My case:

java.util.concurrent.CompletionException: java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Android\SDK\fonts\com.google.android.gms.fonts\directory\font_directory.xml (Access is denied)

As I said my user profile corrupted owner ship of C:\Android\ is not changed causing Access is denied

Solution:

  • Run Android Studio as Administrator or Change ownership of SDK.

Hope may help anyone

Android Studio: Preview rendering not appearing for all my XML files

I still ran into some issues with the rendering, especially those that use androidx functions. However, I did manage to view most of my renders after reinstalling android studio. Hopefully, that is rather helpful to those who need it!

Rendering problems with Android Studio after getting Android N SDK

Make sure that you downloaded Android N in the SDK Manager. You can find the SDK manager next to the purple phone/android (at the top menu bar).

And then, set targetto 24.

Exception during layout rendering Android N Android Studio SDK tools 24.4.1

It is a problem in Android N Preview. Just remove Android N Preview package from the SDK Manager and restart the studio. Then it should work again.

EDIT: Changing the android version used to render layouts in Android Studio may also work.
