Hey,

It could be because you are using a Constraint Layout instead of a Relative Layout. Constraint Layout does not support match_parent, so in you image view you can set width to 0dp and start & end constraints to parent.

<ImageView
        android:id="@+id/titleImageView"
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:adjustViewBounds="true"
        android:scaleType="fitXY"
        app:srcCompat="@mipmap/main_title"
        app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"/>

See if that helps.
