Solution 2:

This Question was asked 1 year ago, I am sure that you have get your solution, however I was also facing the same problem but got the solution in eclipse, here it is:

1. Goto help->AboutEclipse->Installation details.
2. check the version of Android DDMS, Android development tool, Android hierarchy viewer, Android native development tool, Android trace view and tracer for openGl ES in installed software tab.
3. If they have different version than you have to update all of them.
4. Goto help->check for update in eclipse and follow the instruction.
5. Then restart eclipse.

This solved my problem. There is no need to change jdk version or your minimum sdk version of your app.

Solution 3:

It looks like eclipse is reading all files associated with sdk and that takes some time... Especially if you have lots of stuff in your .xml view

Maybe you just need to wait for some time for eclipse to do his job

Solution 4:

Did you tried clicking on the layout and doing the following?

Open With --> Android Layout Editor or Legacy Android Layout Editor

Solution 5:

This might be happening because the manifest minimum sdk is not support to view the layout.to resolve that change the api level. also you can try using OpenWith ->Layout Editor on the xml file which u want to open from project explorer under res folder.
