Question

I had a HD hardware failure the otherday and have been trying to recreate my Android programming environment.

I have installed Eclipse and the Android SDK. I have updated the SDK to the latest version.

I then imported my project from my backup folder. When I look at my layout files in eclipse I cannot view the Grphical.layout as its not an option. I get the following tab options for the page (Design or Source).

However my old environmet which i have a copy of in a virtual machine gives me following tab options for the layout file (Graphical Layout or filename.xml)

Any ideas why this is occuring? I assume it must be something to do with eclipse not realising that its menat to be looking at android xml layout files.

Please help,

Iain
