Hi guys :slightly_smiling_face:
I’m using an `AbstractComposeView` to display a composable in an existing XML view but I’m not getting any preview for the XML layout... Anything I’m missing there? Thanks! :slightly_smiling_face:

Try using `ComposeView` instead of `AbstractComposeView`

hmmmm, for reasons detailed here: <https://proandroiddev.com/jetpack-compose-interop-part-2-using-compose-in-traditional-android-views-and-layouts-with-a3c50fc2eaa5>
the `AbstractComposeView` approach works better for me and is easier to think about because it’s nicely split from the XML and the fragment
Seems weird to me that it does not work out of the box since it seems like a basic use case :confused:
thanks anyway :slightly_smiling_face:

No preview at all? Or just not of the compose part?

not the compose part :slightly_smiling_face: (sorry, should have been clearer in my question)

Ok so it _should_ work, i confirmed with someone on the tooling team. Please file a bug

Thanks for getting back to me :slightly_smiling_face: Will do :thumbsup:
