Android Gradle Plugin: 8.7.1
Could you try the latest canary, AGP 8.8.0-alpha09?
cm...@google.com
I just updated to Android Gradle Plugin: 8.7.2 and the bug is fixed.

I spoke too soon. The bug appears gone when I use a different computer, but that is only because the lint check is disabled on it. The computer with the false positive is a new cloning of my github project which apparently has the lint check enabled. The AGP 8.8.0-alpha09 plugin will not work on ladybug, and I'm too busy to switch to a canary build of android studio just to fix a false positive lint check, sorry.

I just tried running lint on two more of my computers, one which also has a fresh clone of the github project, and one which has an "ancient" (but up to date) clone of the project -- the two computers have very different Settings -> Editor -> Inspections choices. The old clones do not have this lint check anywhere in their choices, whereas new clones do. Very odd indeed. (I have .idea/ in my .gitignore BTW).

I understand that it's not trivial to change AGP version; sorry for suggesting that first.
Actually, there is a better way to test: android.experimental.lint.version=8.8.0-alpha09 which will just change the Lint version.

1. Describe the bug or issue that you're seeing.
In the new beta version of Android Studio it is not possible to create a new string value resource in the strings.xml of the submodule from another submodule. I have one strings.xml located in the common submodule, which is integrated by using "implementation project(path: ':common')" in build.gradle of the main module.
I use this since years, as I only want to have one strings.xml for all submodules to have only one file to translate and to use the same strings in all submodules.
In the last release versions it was possible to create a new string resource value in this common submodule with the main module, but in the new beta it is not possible anymore!
Please fix this!
Please also have a look to the screenshot I made.
