Eclipse Layout Editor Graphical Layout is not Showing or missing ?


Specify the Android Layout Editor as the default for Android XML files under Preferences -> General- >Editors->File Associations.


1. If Android layout editor is missing Add Android Layout Editor and make it default.
2. Close eclipse and restart. Otherwise this will not work.

  1. I found another solution,

    For some reason I had the same issue in my Kindle Fire. So I removed the device from USB cable, close the eclipse, plug my Android Phone, start eclipse back and goto design hola! it worked. Then i removed the phone and put the kindle fire back in

  3. Another possible solution which worked for me. I went to Help > Check for Updates and installed the Android plug-ins as well as Android SDK Tools rev. 17. Restarted Eclipse and layouts are back.
