Sometimes View classes can't be instantiated in in AndroidStudio. I had this problem already with TabLayout and MaterialCardView. Following error message appears:

Failed on instantiate one or more classes

The following classes could not be instantiated:
- com.google.android.material.card.MaterialCardView (Open Class, Show Exception, Clear Cache)
Tip: Use View.isInEditMode() in your custom views to skip code or show sample data when shown in the IDE. If this is an unexpected error you can also try to build the project, then manually refresh the layout.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Motion easing theme attribute must be an @interpolator resource for ?attr/motionEasing*Interpolator attributes or a string for ?attr/motionEasing* attributes.

I think this bug has a VERY HIGH priority, AndroidStudio is the industry-standard for android software development.

Same issue here, had no issues till I updated from Material 1.7.0 to 1.8.0-rc01 . Can't instantiate MaterialCardView in preview layout (project still can be compiled and built despite this).

There was another issue with TabLayout that has only been fixed in Android Studio Giraffe (see https://b.corp.google.com/issues/268488795).
Please file a new issue if this still does not work for you in Giraffe or newer versions of Studio

pa...@outlook.com <pa...@outlook.com> #13Oct 2, 2023 12:14AM

This is now happening for every single xml preview, including drawables, on Giraffe Patch 2.

Happened out of nowhere, sudden massive CPU use non stop, computer started lagging everywhere, forced kill the app after 10min of this nonsense, restarted and no previews for any layouts show up, no matter which .xml file used, new, old, modified, nothing works for the preview now and no warnings show up either. Already tried clearing cache, restarting pc, cleared build files in the project folder, NOTHING WORKS. This is absolutely bonkers, the ability to preview any XML is completely dead and there is no explanation, warning, or error to explain why it is now stuck like this. Unbelievable.
