I've this problem that my screen in Android Virtual Device is out of view. I have tried reducing the scaling by -0.75, as stated by others, but it doesn't seem to help.
Notice how the button to unlock the screen is out of view. How do I solve this issue?
You could use the context menu of windows. Right-click with your mouse on the AVD and chose move. Then your AVD should not be "locked" anymore (and maybe you can adjust the size then too).

I'm new to Android Studio and i have been trying to get the button to work but on my device it wouldn't show but on my design page it's there but no errors show up.
the design layout
the code
the AVD
Remove either layout_marginTop or layout_constraintVertical_bias attribute from the Button, according to the design requirements. Bias moves the button to the very bottom of the screen, and margin moves it event lower, out of the visible are.
P.S. do not trust AS layout preview, it lies sometimes :)
I noticed this half screen wifi selection menu in some Android Apps.
I would like to use this menu in my own app, to give the user the possibility to select the wifi without jumping to settings app.
I didn't find any instruction how to do this. However AndroidStudios Layout Inspector showed me that its belonging to the system, not to the app.
Anyone knows how to open this menu ?
It's called a Settings Panel:

You are looking for Settings Panel
This is for Android Q.
Here's an example to how to call it.
startActivityForResult(Intent(Settings.Panel.ACTION_INTERNET_CONNECTIVITY), INTERNET_SETTINGS_REQUEST)
Why my text inside the android design viewer appears blurry. I tried changing the resolution DPI setting as well. But it didn't work for me.
Please look at my second picture, to let you know which one is I am talking about.
Try changing the scaling to 100% instead to 125%. Normally in Windows 10 default scale in 125% recommended. But using 100% will fix this.
To Find Scaling Setting:
Right Click on the desktop
Navigate to Display Setting
Dont Forget to go advanced scaling setting
And
Turn on the Fixed Scaling for the apps
Just incase sometimes

How about changing device settings?
It just change the resolution of example device and it would make more clear sight from design view. It doesn't change the layout codes.
It would help the development with clear visual, but you have to test various resolutions of devices if you needed to.
Go to 'Help' tab and click on 'Edit Custom Properties'. It might ask you to generate a file if it doesn't already exist. Once this properties file was made, I wrote 'hidpi=false' (no quotations) on a new line, saved it, and restarted Android Studio.
I'm working on a JavaFX Application and came across an issue. When I run my program on a 150% scaled Windows monitor the Menu items appear in the wrong place.
Can I fix this in code or is this a known issue with JavaFX on scaled monitors?
SOLVED
This behaviour was caused by my secondary monitor which has a different resolution than my laptop screen.
As soon as I disconnected my secondary monitor the problem was gone.
Just started with development in Java ADT. I created a textfield and a button in Activity_Main.xml. Then When I run the MainActivity.java the emulator starts but it's always a black background + some buttons in the right frame. I should see a textfield and a button instead of a black background.
Not sure what I'm doing wrong?
I've checked some guides of this problem but without result. I'm considering installing Eclipse instead. One theory is that I'm using blanc space in my path to SDK. I know this can cause issues with the Emulator.
Thanks!
If it's too slow for you, you can try speeding it up by using add-on from Intel. Follow this link for instruction http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/speeding-up-the-android-emulator-on-intel-architecture. Note: Can only be used with Intel architecture.
