2,706 PointsI can't drag widgets onto the phone mockup. Component Tree shows "customview" instead of the Relative View. Help!
I'm in the weather app, trying to set up UI. I'm in activity_main, with the Palette in Design View. My setup looks the same as the video, except the component tree. I've searched the developer site, but it also shows the Relative Layout view, unlike mine.
Hope you can help1

In newer version of Android Studio, they created 2 files for each activity layout, an activity_main file that includes the other view, which is the content_main.xml
To follow the tutorial easily, I suggest copy the content of content_main.xml into activity_main.xml
