Research direction
Investigate how Fresco's DraweeView handles XML tools attributes (e.g., tools:src). The issue likely stems from DraweeView not overriding the necessary methods to support tools namespace when rendering in the Android Studio layout editor. Check the DraweeView source code in the Fresco repository, particularly the onMeasure, onDraw, and any XML inflating logic. Also review comments on the issue for any suggested workarounds or pointers from maintainers.
