Android Studio 3.3 - Enable Navigation not found

Question

I am learning Navigation Codelab, on First Step they are saying that,

1. Click File > Settings (Android Studio > Preferences on Mac)
2. Select the Experimental category in the left pane
3. Check Enable Navigation Editor
4. Restart Android Studio

BUT

In Android Studio 3.3, I have created New Project which I have created, I followed above steps but did't found Enable Navigation Editor checkbox.

Have anyone faced this types of issue? Any help?

Answer 1

In Android Studio 3.3, navigation editor is not in experimental phase anymore. To work with navigation, you can create a new directory in resources folder by name navigation and in that you can create a new navigation.xml file.

Answer 2

I just found release notes about Android Studio 3.3

In that they have announced about Implement navigation with the Navigation Architecture Component.

Create a navigation graph

To add a navigation graph to your project, do the following:

• In the Project window, right-click on the res directory and select New > Android Resource File. The New Resource File dialog appears.

• Type a name in the File name field, such as "nav_graph".

• Select Navigation from the Resource type drop-down list.

• Click OK. The following occurs:

  • A navigation resource directory is created within the res directory.
  • A nav_graph.xml file is created within the navigation directory.
  • The nav_graph.xml file opens in the Navigation Editor. This XML file contains your navigation graph.

• Click the Text tab to toggle to the XML text view. You should see an empty navigation graph, as shown in the following example:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
  <navigation xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
  
  </navigation>
  

  Click Design to return to the Navigation Editor.
