ADT 11.0.0 is designed for use with SDK Tools r11. If you haven't
+already installed SDK Tools r11 into your SDK, use the Android SDK and AVD Manager to do
+so.
+
+
Visual Refactoring:
+
+
+
"Extract Style" feature pulls out style-related attributes from your layout and extracts
+them as a new style defined in {@code styles.xml} (more info).
+
"Wrap in Container" feature lets you select a group of views then surround them
+ in a new layout (a new view group, such as a LinearLayout), and transfers namespace and layout
+ parameters to the new parent (more
+info).
+
"Change Layout" feature changes layouts from one type
+ to another, and can also flatten a layout hierarchy (more
+info).
+
"Change Widget Type" feature changes the type of the
+ selected views to a new type. Also, a new selection context menu
+ in the visual layout editor makes it easy to select siblings as
+ well as views anywhere in the layout that have the same type (more
+info).
+
"Extract as Include" feature finds identical collections of views
+ in other layouts and offers to combine them into a single layout that you can then include in
+ each layout (more info).
+
Quick Assistant in Eclipse can be invoked
+ from the XML editor (with Ctrl-1) to apply any of the above
+ refactorings (and Extract String) to the current selection (more info).
+
+
+
+
Visual Layout Editor:
+
+
+
This is the update to the layout editor you've been waiting for! It includes (almost) all
+the goodies demonstrated at Google I/O. Watch
+the video on YouTube.
+
The palette now supports different configurations for supported widgets. That is, a single
+view is presented in various different configurations that you can drag into your layout. For
+example, there is a Text Fields palette category where you can drag an {@link
+android.widget.EditText} widget in as a password field, an e-mail field, a phone field, or other
+types of text boxes. Similarly, {@link android.widget.TextView} widgets are preconfigured
+with large, normal and small theme sizes, and {@link android.widget.LinearLayout} elements are
+preconfigured in horizontal and vertical configurations (more info).
+
The palette supports custom views. You can pick up any custom
+ implementations of the View class you've created in your project or from included libraries and
+drag them into your layout (more info).
+
Fragments are available in the palette for placement in your layout. In the tool, you can
+choose which layout to show rendered for a given fragment tag. Go to declaration works for fragment
+classes (more info).
+
The layout editor automatically applies a "zoom to fit" for newly
+ opened files as well as on device size and orientation changes to
+ ensure that large layouts are always fully visible unless you
+ manually zoom in.
+
You can drop in an {@code <include>} element from the palette, which will pop up
+ a layout chooser. When you select the layout to include, it is added with an {@code
+<include>}. Similarly, dropping images or image buttons will pop up image
+ resource choosers (more info).
+
The configuration chooser now applies the "Render Target" and
+ "Locale" settings project wide, making it trivial to check the
+ layouts for different languages or render targets without having
+ to configure these individually for each layout.
+
The layout editor is smarter about picking a default theme to
+ render a layout with, consulting factors like theme registrations
+ in the manifest, the SDK version, and other factors.
+
The layout editor is smarter about picking a default configuration to render a layout
+with, defaulting to the currently visible configuration in the previous file. It also considers the
+SDK target to determine whether to default to a tablet or phone screen size.
+
Basic focus support. The first text field dropped in a layout is assigned focus, and there
+are Request Focus and Clear Focus context menu items on text
+fields to change the focus.
+
+
+
+
XML editors:
+
+
+
Code completion has been significantly improved. It now works
+ with {@code <style>} elements, completes dimensional units,
+ sorts resource paths in values based on the attribute name, and more. There are also many fixes to
+handle text replacement (more info).
+
AAPT errors are handled better. They are now underlined for the
+ relevant range in the editor, and a new quickfix makes it trivial
+ to create missing resources.
+
Code completion for drawable, animation and color XML files (more
+info).
+
+
+
+
DDMS:
+
+
+
"New Folder" action in the File Explorer.
+
The screenshot dialog will add timestamps to the filenames and preserve the orientation on
+snapshot refresh.
+
+
+
+
General notes:
+
+
+
TraceView supports zooming with the mouse-wheel in the timeline.
+
The New Android Project wizard now supports Eclipse working sets.
