Android Question Missing View in Visual Designer

[Brad Henderson]

Hello,

I have had a label in my Visual Designer which for some reason is not being displayed. I thought it may have been deleted however when I try to create a new label with that name it says it already exists. How can I find where it is hiding?

Thank you

Brad

Search for it here. Check if Visible is not set to False.

Thank you jahswant,
I found it listed in the tree but have no idea where it was on the layout. Deleted and added again. All good
Thanks again.
Brad

Next time you can also click on the view in the views tree and set in the properties panel the values of top and left to zero.
Even if the width and height are also set to zero you should still see a small dot in the top-left corner.

Thanks also Paul. Will look at that.
