Tools namespace attribute for showing layout in ViewPager in design time

Question

The tools namespace allows for showing view properties in layout designer.

For example using tools:listItem="@layout/{custom_layout} it is possible to show list with custom row layout in Android Studio designer.

Question is:

Is it possible to show layout inside ViewPager?

Answer 1

Nope, there is no such attribute.

Currently (Mar 2021) there is:

• tools:context Intended for: Any root View

• tools:itemCount Intended for: RecyclerView

• tools:layout Intended for: fragment

• tools:listitem / tools:listheader / tools:listfooter Intended for: AdapterView (and subclasses like ListView)

• tools:showIn Intended for: Any root View in a layout that's referred to by an include

• tools:menu Intended for: Any root View

• tools:minValue / tools:maxValue Intented for: NumberPicker

• tools:openDrawer Intented for DrawerLayout

For resources

• tools:shrinkMode

• tools:keep

• tools:discard

• tools:locale

Error Handling:

• tools:ignore Intented for any: Any element

• tools:targetApi Intended for: Any element

General:

• tools: instead of android: Intended for: View
