Why Does Android Studio Fail To Resolve 'View'?

Question

It's not really a big deal but I was just curious as to why I have to manually add:

import android.view.View;

When most other imports I can automatically resolve with alt-enter?

Answer 1

In File > Settings, open Editor > General > Auto Import and check if View is on the excluded list.

Answer 2

In your Android Studio IDE choose File | Invalidate Caches/Restart and see if issue still exists
