At first it didn't work, but then I realised I needed to hit the refresh button in the UI (which refreshed gradle?) then it worked. Currently using Anko 0.8.3, works great! Thanks a bunch.

Because Anko DSL is just code in Kotlin, the build is required before the preview can be shown.
Try to use incremental compilation in Gradle (available in Kotlin 1.0.2), it works much faster with it. 👍

@Adambl4 Can you provide a code fragment?

@yanex

class NotificationsListUI : AnkoComponent<NotificationsList> {
    override fun createView(ui: AnkoContext<NotificationsList>) = with(ui) {
        textView {
            text = "test"
        }
    }
}

This is great! I was getting exceptions being thrown in the most recent repository version, but this seemed to clear them right up. I dropped a comment on the JB Plugins Repository pointing errant googlers here.

@yanex Hi, could you clarify what is the file you attached in the first post and how to use it if it's what intended?
