Re: [android-developers] Eclipse ADT 8.0.0 (and 8.0.1) problem - can't create views hierarchy with drag and drop in the Outline view
I agree.
We are actively rewriting the java library that renders the layout
using a slightly modified version of the Android View Framework, and
we'll try to make it so that unsupported features don't break the
whole layout.
There are some issues however where the framework itself through
exceptions that we can't catch (this is the issue with tabs). To go
around this we're trying to create temp content in empty widgets that
shouldn't be empty.

Re: [android-developers] Eclipse ADT 8.0.0 (and 8.0.1) problem - can't create views hierarchy with drag and drop in the Outline view
Hi,
It would be great if the shapes don't break the entire layout, for example,
I frequently use rounded shapes for my tablerows, but I can't apply them
till the "end" because they can't be displayed/rendered in the layout
editor.
Same thing for TabActivities where the content of each tab is populated by
another independent activities with intents.
Regards.

Re: [android-developers] Eclipse ADT 8.0.0 (and 8.0.1) problem - can't create views hierarchy with drag and drop in the Outline view
hey all,
We're actively working on the editor, so this is good feedback.
The new editor in 8.x might look the same, but it's completely
different underneath and we have added the +/- features back.
the "-" button should be replaced by delete anyway. You can right
click and choose delete or simply hit delete on your keyboard.
The "+" option is indeed replaced by drag and drop. We've improved
drag and drop significantly (and still improving it for the next
version), and should be good enough that using "+" isn't needed.
In some cases too, "+" isn't enough, you need more information to know
where the item will be placed (like when dropping into a
relativeLayout).
(same thing with the up/down arrows)

Yep they are gone. Perhaps, we are now supposed to do drag and drop. "+" "-"
signs were helpful though.

[android-developers] Eclipse ADT 8.0.0 (and 8.0.1) problem - can't create views hierarchy with drag and drop in the Outline view
Before the newest version I was able to create hierarchies using drag
n' drop, performed on the outline view.
Since the upgrade, I can't and the controls ('+', '-' and arrows) are
missing.
So how am I suppose to build view hierarchies now?
