经常打开别人的工程，发现layout里面使用了一些第三方的自定义控件，Graphical Layout标签里是无法预览页面的，抛出一些异常，上图吧：

对于提示Tip: Use View.isInEditMode() in your custom views to skip code when shown in Eclipse。

或者直接抛出的java.lang.NullPointerException,我们直接找到View层的代码，然后解决方法是定位触发错误代码段，并将造成此错误的代码行用
if(!isInEditMode()){
//造成错误的代码段
}
包起来，这样在Eclipse中显示时将跳过此代码段而不再出现错误。

这样就可以正常预览layout了。

isInEditMode:

Indicates whether this View is currently in edit mode. A View is usually in edit mode when displayed within a developer tool. For instance, if this View is being drawn by a visual user interface builder, this method should return true. Subclasses should check the return value of this method to provide different behaviors if their normal behavior might interfere with the host environment. For instance: the class spawns a thread in its constructor, the drawing code relies on device-specific features, etc. This method is usually checked in the drawing code of custom widgets.

如果在自定义控件的构造函数或者其他绘制相关地方使用系统依赖的代码，会导致可视化编辑器无法报错并提示：Use View.isInEditMode() in your custom views to skip code when shown in Eclipse

比如：

public class LockRelativeLayout extends RelativeLayout {
private Handler mainHandler = null; //与主Activity通信的Handler对象

public LockRelativeLayout(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs, 0);
mContext = context;
if (isInEditMode()) { return; }
mainHandler = ((SPActivity)mContext).getMHandler();
}
