When I am editing a layout file is there a way to get eclipse

  • 0

When I am editing a layout file is there a way to get eclipse to autocomplete my strings references from strings.xml.

For example if I have a layout node like this…

<PreferenceCategory android:title="@string/settings_category_stay_intouch_title">

It would be great if I could type the @string/settings_ part and then use alt+space like I can when I referencing the R.string in a source file.

Right now I just get “No XML Template Proposal”

Any tips for configuration or plugins would be appreciated. I use strings.xml extensively and I have a ton of layout files so flipping back and forth between strings.xml and my layouts as I work on them is a bummer.

    Well it should work. Try using on windows CTL+space.

    I tested with latest ADT 16.
