607 PointsWhen pressing Alt+Enter to fix the factLabel, I get different options to fix the error. There is no "make final" choice
The options I get are "Create local variable" "Create field" and "Create parameter"

7,475 PointsI had trouble reproducing this error, but my best guess is that factLabel is not properly defined before you use it. What is the error that displays when you hover over the variable name? It should be "Variable 'factLabel' is accessed from within inner class, needs to be declared final". If you get something like "Cannot resolve symbol 'factLabel'" it means you haven't declared factLabel before trying to access it.
If you're sure you typed the variable declaration, make sure it is above the OnClickListener anonymous function.

607 PointsThanks Sara. I had defined the variable but had spelled it factlabel with a lower case rather than factLabel. So it couldn't recognize the variable I was referring to.
