Officially I found only one way how to mark string not translatable string by string <string translatable="false". But there is no official way how to do it for the whole file. I found that it is possible to rename the file to donottranslate.xml, but this is a very ugly way because then you don't understand the purpose of the file. For example, we are using config.xml with strings that can't be translated. Is there any other unknown way how to mark whole file untranslatable? I think that the best way is to allow do it on <resources> element level.

For lint it is possible on file level by <resources tools:ignore="MissingTranslation">, but it obviously doesn't work for pseudoLocalesEnabled true

Would be possible to add some official way how to do it on file level with possibility to keep own name of the file?

I'd like to fix the formatting but I can't edit my issue.

Our team is also running into this because we use kotlin reflection to set up mock data for previews.

Can you suggest any workaround that we can apply locally to make layout lib include kotlin reflect until it is officially fixed? We are obviously including it as a build dependency but the layout lib preview doesn't pick it up for some reason.

Marked as fixed.

I do not see this issue in Electric Eel Beta 4, but I do see it in Flamingo Canary 6.
