Android Compose cannot preview composable function in android studio "Rendering problem "

I am failing to preview a composable function shown in the code below

@Preview
@Composable
fun StartingConversationInstructions() {
    Column {
        Text(stringResource(id = R.string.remember))

    }
}

but I am getting this error when I am trying to preview the function

I am using android studio version: Android Studio Arctic Fox | 2020.3.1 Canary 4
And Android Compose version :1.0.0-alpha09

which I think is the cause of the problem because as you can find in the changes in this version

Removed SlotTable, SlotReader and SlotWriter from the public API. These were marked as InternalComposeAPI previously. Now they are internal to the compose module.

As the @author states in his comment there are two identical annotations:

import androidx.ui.tooling.preview.Preview
import androidx.compose.ui.tooling.preview.Preview

the second one worked for me.

In you dependencies, change

implementation "androidx.ui:ui-tooling:$compose_version"

to

implementation "androidx.compose.ui:ui-tooling:$compose_version"

Does that work?
