recently learning Xamarin for Android, I'm using a for VS2013 version. Since the Xamarin you started with is a low version, you can compile and release, but not view the layout file of your layout files, after working with VS2013. Always appears: disconnected from layout renderer. It was later found on Xamarin's web forum that this issue was caused by the high version of the Android SDK tools. When the information about the forum was older, there was no corresponding solution for the version I was using. So I can only experiment with myself. Finally, the following list is given in the context of the forum and its own test:?
error code: Disconnected from layout renderer.
corresponding version:
xamarin.android 4.12.02001 using the Android SDK Tools 22.6
xamarin.android 4.12.03003 using the Android SDK Tools 22.6.2
Xamarin for VS 1.12 (Alpha) uses Android SDK Tools 22.6.2
Xamarin for VS 3.1.224 using Android SDK Tools 23.0.1
Xamarin for VS 3.1.228 using Android SDK Tools 23.0.2
Xamarin for VS 3.7.165 using Android SDK Tools 24.0.2 (once test is available, not verified again, please download low version if not used)
Xamarin for VS 3.9.41 using Android SDK Tools 24.0.2 (Once the test is available, not verified again , if not, please download the lower version of the use )
