Deleting android:autofillHints="" from EditText solved the problem with the Render.

The problem is caused by android:autofillHints="" Just remove it and it will render correctly. Ensure you also check to have android:hint="@string/unclock_code" to avoid lint issues.

This is caused by the android:autofillHints="". To solve it, just remove the android:autofillHints="".

Android Studio will still release warnings. To solve this, just add the code: android:importantForAutofill="no"

this often occurs when you've add new libraries to the project via gradle and your ide is not properly synced and indexed of the new classes added to the library. Hence the UI render produces error rendering the new UI elements classes.

Just clean your project by Build -> clean project. Then again click Build -> rebuild project. Once the grade sync is complete, you won't see this message.

If this doesn't help you, then under file -> invalidate caches and restart. This should sort out the issue!!
