I am using android studio 1.1.0. I want to disable specific lint checks like 'Incomplete Translation'. So, I went to File -> Settings... -> Inspections -> Android Lint and unchecked 'Incomplete Translation' item, then pressed Apply & OK buttons. Now, generating signed apk still throws lint errors related to missing translations.

Further on, I disabled entire Android Lint item to see if generation of signed apk skips lint error checking or not. Result is I still got same lint errors for missing translations whereas I was expecting no lint error checking as per updated settings. Is this the bug from android studio or am I doing something wrong here?

Note that I don't want to disable lint error checking entirely, which I can do easily by adding following lines under build.gradle:

lintOptions {
    checkReleaseBuilds false
}

I just want to turn off few lint checks from settings dialog.

As per the official doc http://tools.android.com/tips/lint/suppressing-lint-warnings

"To suppress an error, open the issue in the editor and run the quickfix/intentions action (Ctrl/Cmd F1) and select Suppress which will use annotations, attributes or comments to disable the issue."

OR You can specify translatable tag for your resource to configure this.

Either one by one 

<string name="hello" translatable="false">hello</string>

OR entire resource

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources
  xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
  tools:ignore="MissingTranslation" >

  <!-- Other strings no need of translatable attribute -->

</resources>

  • Sure, I know about these solutions, but settings dialog is preferable for me as far as it's working, because my question is mainly for 'lint settings not updating in android studio'. I would like to turn off specific lint issue ids directly. Missing translation is just one such example. – Ankur Apr 23 '15 at 07:25
