Rendering issue /Found cyclical <include> chain in one layout of project - Android Studio

I am working in Android Studio. It is android version 2.3.2, 7.0 (nougat) and API 25. For my layout/XML file I am getting Rendering Problem and also Found cyclical chain: activity_maps includes activity_maps.

I have looked at other StackOverflow posts and changed the API to a lower version, changed the style.xml file by adding "Base." to get .

This problem is still re-occuring, and I don't know what else to do. All of my other layouts/XML design works except this one. This uses maps to get the direction between two points. Below is the XML file: 

 <LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:map="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
tools:context="edu.usf.cse.labrador.familycare.MapsActivity"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical">

<EditText
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:id="@+id/etOrigin"
    android:hint="Enter your address" />


<RelativeLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:orientation="horizontal">
    <Button
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="Find path"
        android:id="@+id/btnFindPath" />
    <ImageView
        android:layout_marginLeft="20dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="5dp"
        android:layout_width="40dp"
        android:layout_height="40dp"
        android:src="@drawable/ic_distance"/>
    <TextView
        android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="0 km"
        android:id="@+id/tvDistance" />

    <ImageView
        android:layout_marginLeft="20dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="5dp"
        android:layout_width="40dp"
        android:layout_height="40dp"
        android:padding="5dp"
        android:src="@drawable/ic_clock"/>
    <TextView
        android:layout_marginLeft="5dp"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="0 min"
        android:id="@+id/tvDuration" />
</RelativeLayout>


<fragment
    android:id="@+id/map"
    android:name="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:layout="@layout/activity_maps" />

What i see for this layout.

In the design option I don't see anything. The layout is blank.

Please let me know if you have any advice on how to resolve this issue.

Thank you! Really appreciate it.

Remove/change the following in your fragment tag:

 tools:layout="@layout/activity_maps"

if cant display a layout of itself

This may not be it but you are missing the closing Linear Layout.

I put it in and it comes up on my screen.

</LinearLayout >
