Is it normal, that styles and includes don't have any effect in preview in Eclipse? The more I get into Layout building the less I can use the preview. Even in the newest SDK Version it's so poorly made.
A:
The layout preview of Eclipse is not suitable for a real representation of the final layout.
To get a real representation use either an emulator or a real device and the HierarchyViewer if you want to debug your layout.
There exists DriodDraw which is a web-based visual Android layout composition tool written in Java. It is however limited in its functionality and maybe not really what you were looking for.

I hwas testing DroidDraw. Just like u said, its limited and doesnt really suit my needs. Its more a tool to concept apps.
