Flutter-intellij: Flutter Inspector is not showing

[DevToDipesh]

Thanks for the feedback! If your issue is related to the Flutter framework itself,
please open an issue at
github.com/flutter/flutter.

Steps to Reproduce

When I install Flutter in the android studio. It only shows Flutter outline. Flutter Inspector is disabled and I unable to open it.

Please help me for the same I want to see and learn the preview of activities. I am attaching the screenshot for the same.

Version info

   Android Studio (version 3.3)
•   Flutter plugin version 34.0.1
• Dart plugin version 182.5215

The inspector and memory profiler should be available when a Flutter app is running. I can't tell from the screenshot if it is. Try restarting your app. If that doesn't help please append the output of flutter doctor -v.

I am experiencing the same issue: the flutter inspector won't appear. It is not even possible to select it in the Tool Window http://prntscr.com/np3vlt

I've the exact same problem,

I'm running Windows 10 Pro and have an Android app started on an emulator. The Flutter Inspector seems to be disabled.

When starting the app I get this result in the console:
```Launching lib\main.dart on Android SDK built for x86 in debug mode...
Initializing gradle...
Resolving dependencies...
Running Gradle task 'assembleDebug'...
Built build\app\outputs\apk\debug\app-debug.apk.
Installing build\app\outputs\apk\app.apk...
Error connecting to the service protocol: HttpException: Connection closed before full header was received, uri = http://127.0.0.1:54783/9ycl9WsP0Eo=/ws

Maybe this is related?

Update
Seems to be related to the emulator. The error occurs on the emulator.

Emulator 1 (with error):
Nexus 6, Q
Emulated Performance, graphics: Hardware

Emulator 2 (without error)
Nexus 5X, Pie
Emulated Performance, graphics: Auto

Tried to change Emulator settings from hardware acceleration to auto. Didn't work.
Anyway, I found a workaround and will continue for now.

@StefanBols And which is that workaround? did you use an real device? because I ran my code in one and the Flutter inspector is still disabled.

[lim-enhui]

android studio -> preferences -> languages & frameworks -> flutter -> App Execution ->Open Flutter Inspector view on launch

or View -> Tool Window and check if its there

@StefanBols And which is that workaround? did you use an real device? because I ran my code in one and the Flutter inspector is still disabled.

@GasparPizarro I just created a new emulator with "Emulated Performance" setting set to "Auto" and the SDK as Pie instead og Q. Then it worked for me.

This worked for me; flutter inspector tab finally activated

[rookie-12]

you have to just wipe data by right clicking on emulator in avd manager

"I just created a new emulator with "Emulated Performance" setting set to "Auto" and the SDK as Pie instead of Q. Then it worked for me" doesn't work ,Flutter inspector still not showing.

[AntonyLeons]

okay I think I found the solution, I think the problem is android studio does not detect flutter run in the terminal.

using the green play button or shift + F10 fixed this for me.
