My preview screen doesn't automatically change colour...

My preview screen doesn't automatically change to the colour I apply but it still shows the results of my colour choices when I run the emulator. How do I make it so that the preview screen will show me my colour changes without having to run the emulator to see every change I make?

Hey Taylor,

Try closing and reopening the layout file, that should reset it. Also make sure you are on a newer version of Android Studio.

Hope that helps!
