How to disable scrolling for CalendarView - Android Dev

I am currently refreshing my android developement skills and came across the CalendarView component. I wanted to disable the scrolling of the calendar and instead enable the arrows to browse through the calendar.
What I want to know is the following:
How can I disable the scrolling from the CalendarView? And why does Android Studio show me the arrow browse-version in the Designer-Mode but compiles and runs the scroll-version of the calendar?
I am running an Android VM, a "Galaxy Nexus" with API 22. I also posted the "build.gradle" further below.
What Android shows me/What I want:
What Android Studio compiles & runs:
Here some code:
// activity_main.java:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

}

Use MaterialComponents Theme, it will most probably solve the issue.
In your values/themes file replace the parent them with this,
parent="Theme.MaterialComponents.DayNight.DarkActionBar"
If you don't want Action Bar then ,
parent="Theme.MaterialComponents.DayNight.NoActionBar"
And if you only want to show Light Coloured Calendar view regardless of Devices's theme use,
parent="Theme.MaterialComponents.Light.NoActionBar"

Thanks to Vaibhav Goyal i came across the solution.
The API level I used was to low (API 22, Android 5.1). Changing that to API 23 (Android 6.0) solved my problem. Now it shows me the CalendarView with arrow-navigation instead of the scroll version!

yourCalenenderId.addOnItemTouchListener(object : RecyclerView.SimpleOnItemTouchListener() {
override fun onInterceptTouchEvent(rv: RecyclerView, e: MotionEvent): Boolean {
return if (e.action == MotionEvent.ACTION_MOVE) {
true
} else {
super.onInterceptTouchEvent(rv, e)
}
}
})

So how this error could be fixed, I search here and on Google a lot but no luck!.

Finaly i solve it
By changing <style name="TextLabel" parent="TextAppearance.AppCompat">
To <style name="TextLabel" parent="Widget.MaterialComponents.TextInputLayout.FilledBox">

You cannot mix both support and androidx libraries together in the same project, there will surely be conflicts unless you're using Jetpack tool. Migrate your support libraries to androidx
Also References in an Androidx layout file should all be androidx artifacts and not otherwise.
Hence tag like this:
<android.support.design.widget.BottomNavigationView
android:id="#+id/bottom_navigation"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:background="#color/purpleBae"
app:itemIconTint="#android:color/white"
app:itemTextColor="#android:color/white"
app:menu="#menu/home_menu" />
Should be:
<com.google.android.material.bottomnavigation.BottomNavigationView
android:id="#+id/bottom_navigation"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:background="#color/purpleBae"
app:itemIconTint="#android:color/white"
app:itemTextColor="#android:color/white"
app:menu="#menu/home_menu" />

add below dependency:
dependencies {
// https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.google.android.material/material
implementation "com.google.android.material:material:1.0.0"
}
and use com.google.android.material.bottomnavigation.BottomNavigationView instead

android studio showing control as text

Android studio not showing the controls from 'com.android.support:support-v4:28.0.0' properly even if i added it in my build.gradle file
i have already tried setting AppTheme in my styles.xml to 'Base.Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar' and tried multiple rebuilds

here the 'android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout' just shows as android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout in the preview

Why I am Not changing compiled SDK version 28 to 27
bcz I want to use Bottom app bar
Bottom App Bar Material Design
App Bars:Bottom- Material Design

This is a bug in 28.0.0 and the only fix(workaround) is adding this to your Build.gradle:
configurations.all {
resolutionStrategy.eachDependency { DependencyResolveDetails details ->
def requested = details.requested
if (requested.group == "com.android.support") {
if (!requested.name.startsWith("multidex")) {
details.useVersion "27.1.1"
}
}
}
}
Which somehow, this bypasses the issue and uses 27 support library for that. Otherwise, you may wanna update your Android Studio to canary channel version or using backward support library like 27.1.1 or etc.

This error was occurred in your Rendering Layout which is a part of Studio Not in any files or Library
Try adding "Base" before Theme in styles.xml as show : -
"Base.Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar"
Please restart Android Studio by selecting the menu option "File" →
"Invalidate Caches / Restart"
Workarounds: Try rendering with M preview using AS v1.3 preview OR
use FrameLayout for designing and change to
android.support.design.widget.CoordinatorLayout while debugging.
