Exception in XML layout preview when using the space navigation

[roschlau]

When I use the space navigation in a layout file the preview window will throw an Exception:

java.lang.NullPointerException: Your space item count must be greater than 1 , your current items count is : 0

This makes the preview basically unsuable. Is there a way you could just show dummy items when in the preview, or can you provide items directly in the xml?

@Hikaru755 Unfortunately there is no way to add items from xml, you should add items programatically from activity or fragment .

@armcha Alright, then would it be possible to add a check by using View.isInEditMode() inside the SpaceNavigationView, to display dummy items when the view is shown in the preview, instead of throwing an exception?

@Hikaru755 It's probably will be available in next version

@armcha Great, thanks!
