What is the main function of the Layout Inspector tool in user interface development?

Layout Inspector is a tool in Android Studio that allows developers to visually explore and debug the application's user interface hierarchy at runtime.

The main function of the Layout Inspector is to show the structure of View components, their properties (sizes, margins, visibility, etc.), and how they are arranged on the screen. This helps identify issues with element placement, incorrect display, or overlapping.

For example, with the Layout Inspector, you can:

• View the View tree and understand which components are inside others.
• Check the sizes and positioning of elements.
• Track down why a certain element is not visible or is overlapped.

This significantly eases UI debugging and improves interface quality.
