4,788 PointsHi Pawin and Lidio,
I had the same issue.
To resolve we need to assign an ID to our the label that we've amended. You can do this within the Text editor or within the Design tab. Within the text editor you will need to add something similar to the following:
android:id="@+id/didyouknow"
By adding this you've applied the ID value of didyouknow to your label. If you switch back to your Design view and view the alphabetically ascending list of properties (where we changed the text) on the right hand side of the IDE we can see that this now has the id of didyouknow.
By hovering over the error when it was still present we can see that this is a fairly recent change to the way that Android Studio handles strings on a form and it looks to be changed due to the way ID integers are assigned.
I hope this helps you, Matthew
