Missing attributes in layout editor in Android Studio

I've got a problem with Android Studio version 3.2.1. I do not see in layout editor most of attributes like for example id. I have got this bug probably after Android Studio's update. enter image description here

Down of the activity_main.xml window there is "Design" tab and "Text" tab. Click on design tab, select an item and voila: attributes window is on the right

This happened to me today. It was very frustrating, my entire gradle got messed up for unknown reason. in build.gradle (Module: app), I had issues with

implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0' .

I chose to suppress the warning at first, and they put

//noinspection GradleCompatible 
implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0'

for me... Anyways, I replaced above line with

implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.1.0'

and changed my compileSdkVersion to 26 and the attributes in layout editor came back alive. so I guess that appcompat thing has to do with the layout editor.

I had to delete all android studio files (not just uninstall and except your projects). I didn't try Raynold's solution, so if you have any problem you can try it before deleting all the files.

This worked for me.

  • Exit android studio then make the below changes.

  • Go to C:\Users\UserName.android and rename the build-cache folder to build-cache.bak

  • Go to C:\Users\UserName.AndroidStudio3.2\system and rename these folders

    caches to caches.bak

    compiler to compiler.bak

    compile-server to compile-server.bak

    conversion to conversion.bak

    external_build_system to external_build_system.bak

    frameworks to frameworks.bak

    gradle to gradle.bak

    resource_folder_cache to resource_folder_cache.bak

  • Open the Android Studio and open your project again.

No IDEA annotations attached to the JDK 1.8 (C:\...), some issues will not be found

Starting with Android Studio 3.0.1, all the fields from the Properties panel can now be found under the Attributes by selecting:
