Linear Layout Constraints added automatically when switching tabs

Question

Android Studio keeps changing my constrains when switching tabs between Design and Text tabs.

Before changing to Design tab:

 <LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="horizontal">....

After switching to Design and back to Text:

 <LinearLayout
    android:layout_width="395dp"
    android:layout_height="587dp"
    android:orientation="horizontal"
    tools:layout_editor_absoluteY="8dp"
    tools:layout_editor_absoluteX="8dp">...

Must be a button I am missing. How do I prevent it from happening?

May be you are adding any widget from design panel that affects your layout. — Vidhi Dave, Jun 02 '17 at 08:25
Nope, no widget adding. New Empty Activity. Only Linear Layout with TextView or ImageView added — Idan, Jun 02 '17 at 11:27

It seemed to be a bug in Android Studio.

Once I upgraded to 3.0.1 the problem seemed to be resolved itself.
