Hi Paul,

Which ID you are talking about? There are several ways of how you can change the id of a TextView or Button or something.

  1. To access the place where we can change the ID. First, go to your Package Explorer (If it doesn't appear, go to Window>Show View>Package Explorer

  2. In the Package Explorer > layout > double click on activity_main.xml

  3. Then in Graphical Layout Interface. Right Click on the thing that you want to change (For ex: Button) > Then select Edit ID

Hope this helps
