'Android - The rendering target is still loading
I am using Eclipse 4.2.1 to build an Android application, and recently I upgraded my Eclipse ADT. Now I have ADT 23.0.6. After an upgrade, I noticed that I cannot view my XML layouts anymore. There is a message "The rendering target (Android 5.0.1) is still loading. The layout will refresh automatically once the process is finished." and it never goes away. I have read on stackoverflow that it's because my Android SDK and ADT are of different versions. Indeed, my Android SDK is 24.1.2 . However, there is no ADT version 24.1.2. ADT 23.0.6 is the most recent version. So, is it true that the reason for my XML layout file not loading is that I have different versions of ADT & SDK? What should I do?

Just change the 21 to 17 beside PayrollActivity in snapshot so that u can view xml as your ADT is latest one xml automatically loading 5.0.1

I was facing the same issue.
Uninstall ADT from Eclipse (Help>About Eclipse>Installed Details>Un-install) and reinstall using Help>Install New Software> ADT - Android eclipse
Can now place widgets from design palate in to my activity layout like before.
