I am working a WearOs project with Xamarin.Native and when use share styles in Styles.xml, everytime I make changes they arent recognized by the xamarin Andorid designer. Newly created styles are also highlighted as cannot be found. Build, Rebuild doesnt help. Only solution is restarting the VS19 or VS22. Is there something I am missing?

Anonymous2022-03-28T05:21:43.883+00:00 Firstly, please share your custom style code and layout that I can reproduce this issue. I added a
android.support.v7.widget.AppCompatButtonfollowing style in thestyles.xml. Save it, Android designer could update style changes immediately. My visual studio version is 17.0.4<style name="ButtonColor" parent="Widget.AppCompat.Button.Colored"> <item name="colorButtonNormal">@color/yourcolor</item> <item name="android:colorButtonNormal">@color/yourcolor</item> <item name="android:textColor">@color/yourcolor</item> </style>Then, when you added or edited the style, please save it, then, I create Please click the Tools->Options-> find Xamarin->choose the Android UI Designer, enable
Enable accelerated renderingandRefresh layout preview on code changesselection. Then try to make a test.
