Hi everyone! Has anyone tried setting up fire to use the new layout constraints for xml android? … or it’s not supported yet?
You can use all XML Layout features supported by Android, in Elememts. We don’t touch the layout files at all, we just pass them thru.
but I’m having an error message even though build is successful … 
Ok, that error comes from the Android build chain, not from our compiler. Check the complete build log for details; if the value is valid and should be known, maybe you are missing a reference to the Android library that pulls this in? What build of Elements are you using? I recommend trying the latest 8.4 beta, as we recently made a lot of improvements to the Android build chain, especially for references, gradle, and for the pre- and post-compile tools.
Thanks marc! I used build 8.3.93.1987 for the project. I’ll try this with the 8.4 beta … I’m also using the canary branch of the android sdk

Hi there, any news about this topic? I have the same issue with Elements 9 and android tool 25.0.3. The aapt version is:
Android Asset Packaging Tool, v0.2-3544217
The full output is:

Time Elapsed 00:00:00.4498840I’ll have a look next week. If you can send me a compete test case project, that’d be appreciated.
Hi Marc, I would like to port this Android project into Fire/Silver:
https://github.com/Tritium-3h/SimonSaysAndroid
I just created a new Android project e copied activity_main.xml and colors.xml into the Fire project.
In attachment the Fire project.
Thanks
Claudio
