Hi everyone, and thank you for willing to help. Searched everywhere for this and can't find a solution for intellij so I decided to ask for help here.
So here's the error message whenever I open the Design xml: "This version of the rendering library is more recent than your version of IntelliJ IDEA. Please update IntelliJ IDEA (Details)". I have the latest IntelliJ and the error appeared after I installed some new versions of Android SDK Build-Tools with SDK Manager. I tried removing all the new versions of that but the problem remains. I found a solution for Android Studio where you force the ide to use a specific SDK Build-Tools version, but can't find how to do that on IntelliJ. Any help would be appreciated and please keep in mind that I'm a noob, have patience with me
Also, sorry for my English...
Here are the Details, next to the error:
