Layout Editor Improvements

• Views will now be inflated with styles (the one specified in the manifest), Views using attributes such as ?attr/colorPrimary will now get the color from the styles.
• Added TextInputLayout and TextInputEditText support (using styles with it may not produce expected results yet, drag and drop may not work as expected as TextInputLayout has an intermediate FrameLayout inside)
• color, dimen, inset, selector tags are now parsed in resources.
• Android xml attributes are now stored in app's assets folder and will also be included in parsing for layout preview.
• Xml files of libraries that you have will now be included in parsing for layout preview.
• You can now write common view class names without their fully qualified class names (Button instead of android.widget.Button)
• Added material parser factory, common view class names will now be replaced with their material view equivalent. (turned on by default, Button will be replaced to com.google.android.material.button.MaterialButton
• If an attribute has been set to empty, it will automatically be removed.
• When an attribute has been removed, the view that the attribute is associated with will now be recreated to remove the attributes.
• Required width and height attributes are now automatically added when using the drag and drop editor.

Code Completion and Code Highlighting

• Asynchronous highlighting, java and kotlin error highlighters are now run in background and will be canceled accordingly as the user types.
• The app now supports real-time error highlighting for Kotlin. (Turn it on in settings, make sure that code completion for kotlin is off as its still unstable with code completions turned on.)
• Generic types are now displayed properly in code completion list.
• Fixed deadlocks causing code completions and error highlighting to completely stop functioning before.

Better External Keyboard Support (Keyboard shortcuts)

• alt + space Force the completion window to open at the cursor position
• alt + enter Show context actions or quick fixes based don the current cursor position.
• shift + enter Add a new line regardless of column position.

Context Actions and Quick Fixes

• View javadoc action, quickly view the documentation of the selected code. (Currently there are a few comments because including the sources in the app will significantly increase its size)
• Diagnostic information action, if the current selected code has an underline in it, this action will show information about what the error or warning is.

Logs

• Logs of built APKs should now be shown consistently (Unless the app crashed before onCreate is called.)
• Errors of the current file you're editing are now shown in real-time, just swipe up from the bottom and navigate to the Debug tab.
