I installed Android Studio and wanted to make new project but im getting android...coordinatorlayout error on Design page.
My IDE Status: Using latest build tools, IDE is up to date, Using android 4.0 for project and 4.0 is installed.
My styles.xml file:
<resources>
<!-- Base application theme. -->
<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
<!-- Customize your theme here. -->
<item name="colorPrimary">@color/colorPrimary</item>
<item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
<item name="colorAccent">@color/colorAccent</item>
</style>
<style name="AppTheme.NoActionBar">
<item name="windowActionBar">false</item>
<item name="windowNoTitle">true</item>
</style>
<style name="AppTheme.AppBarOverlay" parent="ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar" />
<style name="AppTheme.PopupOverlay" parent="ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light" />
that mistake can be because you haven't included Constraintlayout's dependency on the grade.
Add ConstraintLayout to your project
To use ConstraintLayout in your project, proceed as follows:
Ensure you have the maven.google.com repository declared in your module-level build.gradle file:
repositories {
google()
}
Add the library as a dependency in the same build.gradle file, as shown in the example below. Note that the latest version might be different than what is shown in the example:
dependencies {
implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.1.2'
}
In the toolbar or sync notification, click Sync Project with Gradle Files. Now you're ready to build your layout with ConstraintLayout.
You can find more documentation in the following link.

I hope it helps
