Any possibility to get autocompletion / type-ahead / intellisense in Android XML Files (Eclipse)


Is there any way to make Eclipse + Android SDK + ADT Plugin offer some sort of auto-complete in XML files if I hit CTRL+Space when my cursor is in a spot such as the ones marked with an * below.

<LinearLayout id* ... lay*>

The thing is that I think that the above was actually working already directly after the initial install - even though it of course never worked within style files.

<style name="ActionBarWrapper" parent="Fill_Parent.Vertical">
        <item name="android:layout_height">36dp</item>
            <item name="a*"
</style> 

Solution

  • There is an icon in the eclispe toolbar to directly access the "new android xml file" wizard.
