One of the things that we're looking into is more feedback during drag and drop. In the dev build for instance we automatically expand empty layouts so that you can drop into them (since they normally have a 0x0 size). I think displaying info in them (during drag and drop only) would help too. Xav -- Xavier Ducrohet Android SDK Tech Lead Google Inc. Please do not send me questions directly.
