The solution to this problem depends on the version of the Android support library you're using:



Support library 26.0.0-beta2



This android support library version has a bug causing the mentioned problem



In your Gradle build file use:



compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.0.0'


with:



buildToolsVersion '26.0.0' 


and



classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.0-alpha8'


everything should work fine now.





Library version 28 (beta)



These new versions seem to suffer from similar difficulties again.



In your res/values/styles.xml modify the AppTheme style from



<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">


to



<style name="AppTheme" parent="Base.Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">


(note the added Base.)



Or alternatively downgrade the library until the problem is fixed:



implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0-alpha1'

    I just started today. I came across this issue. This answer asks to compile something, of which I have no idea as it does not explain how to do it. But the answer by tanchap solves issue. He/She clearly explained what to do. It was a simple task fora fresher like me. So I think that should be the answer.

found it on this site, it works on me.
Modify /res/values/styles.xml from:



<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">
</style>


to:



<style name="AppTheme" parent="Base.Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">

    This also worked for me. Does anyone know why this is necessary, though? I've been away from Android for a few years and I cannot believe how much finagling I've had to do to get a simple project up and running. (This includes trying to build/run some of the sample projects provided by Android Studio.)

June 2018 Issue fixed by using a different appcompact version.
Use these codes onto your project dependencies...



In build.gradle(Module: app) add this dependency



implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0-alpha1'


Happy Coding... :)

Method 1:



Locate /res/values/styles.xml



Change



<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">


To



<style name="AppTheme" parent="Base.Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">


Method 2:



Modify template file(locate: android-studio/plugins/android/lib/templates/gradle-projects/NewAndroidModule/root/res/values/styles.xml.ftl)



Change



backwardsCompatibility!true>Theme.AppCompat<#else><#if


To



backwardsCompatibility!true>Base.Theme.AppCompat<#else><#if

    I also had this problem and it's solved as
    change line from res/values/styles.xml



    <style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">


    to




    1. <style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">

    2. <style name="AppTheme" parent="Base.Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">

          implementation 'com.android.support:design:26.0.0-beta1'

          implementation 'com.android.support:design:26.0.0-beta2'

            This is the minimum configuration that solves the problem.



            use:



            dependencies {
            ...
            implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.1.0'

            }


            with:



             compileSdkVersion 26
            buildToolsVersion "26.0.1"


            and into the build.gradle file located inside the root of the proyect:



            buildscript {
            ...
            ....
            dependencies {

              I was also facing the same problem. Nothing like changing theme from Layout preview window helped me.



              What helped me was adding this to Apptheme in styles.xml:



              dependencies {
              implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:27.0.2'
              implementation 'com.android.support:design:27.0.2'
              }


              Still it was giving me the error: "cannot resolve symbol widget...coordinatorLayout". Then I updated my build.gradle(app) with:



              dependencies {
              implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:27.0.2'
              implementation 'com.android.support:design:27.0.2'
              }


              One more thing:



              compileSdkVersion 27
              targetSdkVersion 27

                I also had this problem with implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0-alpha3'.



                The solution for me was to go File -> Invalidate Caches / Restart -> Invalidate -> Close Project -> Remove project from project window -> Open Project (from project window).

                  to



                  <style name="AppTheme" parent="Base.Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">


                  (note the added Base.)



                  Or alternatively downgrade the library until the problem is fixed:



                  implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0-alpha1'

                  The solution to this problem depends on the version of the Android support library you're using:



                  Support library 26.0.0-beta2



                  This android support library version has a bug causing the mentioned problem



                  In your Gradle build file use:



                  compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.0.0'


                  with:



                  buildToolsVersion '26.0.0' 


                  and



                  classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.0.0-alpha8'


                  everything should work fine now.





                  Library version 28 (beta)



                  These new versions seem to suffer from similar difficulties again.



                  In your res/values/styles.xml modify the AppTheme style from



                  <style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">


                  to



                  <style name="AppTheme" parent="Base.Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">


                  (note the added Base.)



                  Or alternatively downgrade the library until the problem is fixed:



                  implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0-alpha1'

                    I just started today. I came across this issue. This answer asks to compile something, of which I have no idea as it does not explain how to do it. But the answer by tanchap solves issue. He/She clearly explained what to do. It was a simple task fora fresher like me. So I think that should be the answer.

                    Newb error for me! When I set up my new project, I forgot to uncheck the "Backwards Compatibility" option (I don't need backwards compatibility). I re-created the project with this unchecked and all is good!

                  Can you add an explanation of why this works? It will help people who revisit this in the future.

                  This also worked for me. Does anyone know why this is necessary, though? I've been away from Android for a few years and I cannot believe how much finagling I've had to do to get a simple project up and running. (This includes trying to build/run some of the sample projects provided by Android Studio.)

                  June 2018 Issue fixed by using a different appcompact version.
                  Use these codes onto your project dependencies...



                  In build.gradle(Module: app) add this dependency



                  implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0-alpha1'


                  Happy Coding... :)
