I am a newbie to Android Studio. I'm going through the Android Kotlin google codelab .

In step 3, "Step 3: Align the baselines of the two text views", I'm told to click on the textview I just added and use the edit baseline icon. I don't have one and googled that it's deprecated and I should use the right-click contextual menu. Except I don't have a Show Baseline option for either of the textviews I just added. Above I do have a bunch of chained textviews and they DO have a Show Baseline option. I've googled this and the few references I found just insist there should be a right-click Show Baseline option. What am I not understanding?

  • Just to note, that I added the baseline XML manually as in app:layout_constraintBaseline_toBaselineOf="@+id/info_text" and now the right-click contextual menu contains a Show Baseline option. Must be a bug is my best guess at this point. – Mark Ryan Apr 21 '21 at 04:40
