You can import existing Eclipse ADT projects as well as Gradle modules into an existing Gradle project it will copy in the sources as is done for full project import, as well as handle dependencies transitively. Importing modules should now work properly.

The property sheet custom editor for colors now includes support for the ARGB format.

This means that if you for example switch to a 7' tablet layout, it will show all subsequent layouts you open with the same device, except when that device is not a match for the layout - for example if you open an xlarge layout, in which case it will open the most recently chosen compatible device, such as a 10' tablet layout. Rather than always remembering the most recently used device per layout, and always defaulting to Nexus 4, it now keeps a list of the most recently chosen devices, and always switches to the first matching device among the most recently chosen devices. We now display this information in the menu such that you can instantly see when this happens, to help make it clear when a layout is not a match. For example, if you are looking at a layout with a phone, and there is an xlarge version of the same layout, then switching to a Nexus 10 will force the editor to switch to the xlarge version of the layout.

The layout configuration menus now show you whether picking a specific device will result in jumping to a different layout.

(This work is ongoing and in upcoming releases code completion and documentation will be improved.) It should no longer create incorrect errors and warnings, and go to declaration should be able to jump to the right methods.

The Gradle build file editor is now smarter about the Android Gradle plugin's DSL.

Removed many incorrect annotations from the SDK builtin annotation database, so there should be fewer incorrect null warnings in your code.

In the upcoming 0.10.x version of the Android Gradle plugin, the plugin will extract these annotations into your libraries' AAR files such that clients of your library can get the same resource type checks as is shown above for the SDK APIs. Add a dependency on :support-annotations:+ to use these in your projects.

Support for the new annotations which shipped with the most recent version of the support library, such as and as well as annotations to declare resource types and valid constants.

Choosing the first item here will insert R.layout at the caret location and import the R class if necessary.
