Preview mode

Hello, I am using android studio 3.5.1. When i am in preview mode i can not see the entire app with the title in preview. I only see Hello world! in the middle with no title FUN FATCS.

I would like to see the entire app with title in the preview. Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you.

In preview you can zoom in and out. If you check the video @1:55 he is at 32%. Use the + and - next to number to adjust.

I finally find the solution. In the preview mode, i clicked on the eye and selected layout decorations and the title showed up. Thanks for help.

Thank you for the response. I did zoom to 100% in preview mode. There is no title Fun Facts that i can see. It just isn't there. I am using the latest version of android studio 3.5.1, may be there is a bug. I can see the title Fun Facts in the emulator, but in design mode or preview it just doesn't show up.

Thank you.
