Can not use FloatingActionButton

Question

I am doing the Android first app tutorial from http://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/starting-activity.html.

I am trying to use FloatingActionButton but it is not recognised by Android Studio.

I have added this import:

import android.support.design.widget.FloatingActionButton;

But it is also not found.

Do I need to add any other dependencies?

If I add compile 'com.android.support:design:23.2.1' to the module's build.gradle I get:

Error:A problem occurred configuring project ':app'.
> Could not resolve all dependencies for configuration ':app:_debugCompile'.
   > Could not find com.android.support:design:23.2.1.
     Searched in the following locations:
         https://jcenter.bintray.com/com/android/support/design/23.2.1/design-23.2.1.pom

I get an error when adding the dependency. I updated my answer. – bsky Mar 31 '16 at 08:37
@octavian which gradle file are you adding this? – Oğuzhan Döngül Mar 31 '16 at 08:40
this one `Module: app` – bsky Mar 31 '16 at 08:45
@octavian so, if you update your question and add your gradle file, it will be more easier – Oğuzhan Döngül Mar 31 '16 at 09:30

You can use one of them

compile 'com.android.support:design:23.1.0'
compile 'com.android.support:design:23.1.1'

Version 23.2 buggy . See details Android Studio FloatingActionButton error

Add this:

dependencies {
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.+'
    compile 'com.android.support:design:23.+'
}
