I’ve looked at several other questions related, one answer even seemed like it solved the problem however I was wrong.

The issue is I get:

Parser exception for C:\Documents and Settings\djordan\My Documents\SampleTest\AndroidManifest.xml: The markup in the document following the root element must be well-formed.

When I drag/drop a new TextView or Multiline Text view item to the canvas. All other Text Fields add fine.

EDIT: Pasted the wrong error … updated. and Added following work flow:
1. open SDK, check API 16 installed.
2. open Eclipse, create new Android project
– name, target/minimum API 16
3. in Graphical Layout drag “Plain Text” or “MultiLine Text” from the Text Fields.
4. view error above.

    Flip over to the xml page, go through and find the textView you just added. Find the attribute where it says android:textSize=”18″ and change it to android:textSize=”18dip” That should solve it. The error is telling you that the units for that attribute are not valid or were not set.
