Android Studio 1.5.1 rendering problems

I'm new to android studio and I have a new version installed (version 1.5.1). For some reason I keep getting an error message (every time I use an app theme) saying that there were rendering problems: styles missing. I looked online for solutions, but most of them are outdated or just do not work.

Thanks for any help.

Manifest file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.easycodingplus.myapplication">

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:supportsRtl="true"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
        <activity
            android:name=".MainActivity"
            android:label="@string/app_name"
            android:theme="@style/AppTheme.NoActionBar">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
    </application>

</manifest>

Build gradle:

apply plugin: 'com.android.application'

android {
    compileSdkVersion 23
    buildToolsVersion "23.0.2"

    defaultConfig {
        applicationId "com.easycodingplus.myapplication"
        minSdkVersion 8
        targetSdkVersion 23
        versionCode 1
        versionName "1.0"
    }
    buildTypes {
        release {
            minifyEnabled false
            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile('proguard-android.txt'), 'proguard-rules.pro'
        }
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.1.1'
    compile 'com.android.support:design:23.1.1'
}

3 options

1.Select low-level API version

2.Add Base on styles.xml

3.Install previous SDK (if you want)

I faced the same problem and these steps helped me solve it: 1. File > Other settings > Default Settings > Appearances & Behaviour > File encoding. 2. Change project encoding to windows-1252. Then: 3. File > Invalidate Chaches/Restart. OR WORST CASE Change the theme to Material light or something else, one of them should work. I hope this helps.

just change your style.xml file like this

<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
    <!-- Customize your theme here. -->
    <item name="colorPrimary">@color/colorPrimary</item>
    <item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
    <item name="colorAccent">@color/colorAccent</item>
</style>

and then, go to

File > Project Structure > app >

and set (both should be same with latest version )

source compatibility : 1.7

Target compatibility : 1.7

Please ensure you have the lateset AppCompat library listed as a dependency in your build.gradle file:

com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.1.0

Can you post which style the error is referring to? You may need to add a style to your res > values > styles folder. Something in your code is probably referencing a style that does not exists in that folder.

you have to include the dependencies for design which is like this, this will be added under the dependencies block of the app module of the build.gradle

compile 'com.android.support:design:23.1.1'

it should be something like this ..

you need this support library as CoordinatorLayout, AppBarLayout and FloatingActionButton part of it

make a style in the style file

<style name="AppTheme" parent="Base.Theme.AppCompat.Light">
    <!-- Customize your theme here. -->
    <item name="colorPrimary">@color/colorPrimary</item>
    <item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
    <item name="colorAccent">@color/colorAccent</item>
    <item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
    <item name="windowNoTitle">true</item>
</style>

and reference that in your AndroidManifest file

<application
    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:largeHeap="true"
    android:supportsRtl="true"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme">// like this
