I recently ran into this problem. Try File > Sync Project with Gradle Files. This can also help with configuration problems

The view that you are looking for is called the "preview" window in android studio.

You have to open a layout view in your project. Navigate to src/main/res/layout/ in your project and select the xml layout file you want to work with.

If the preview window doesn't automatically open up, you can open the view by selecting from the tool bar View>Tool Windows>Preview

There will be a "Design" and "Text" tab at the bottom of the xml layout.
