I don't seem to have a drawable folder in Android Studio to add images..

Can I create one and will it work OK??

I'm new to this so simple steps would be appreciated.

Thanks

  • In the top left of android studio, above the file tree. There should be a thing that says `Android` and an android guy. Click that and set it to `project`. Do you see the folders now? Under `app/src/main/res`. – Gary Holiday Mar 15 '17 at 23:16

Just go to your res folder and create a folder called "drawable" yourself - it will work just fine. Note that you might have to add resource-qualifiers (like -xhdpi), e.g. for pngs.

in res folder right click then click "show in explorer" and then create new folder as "drawable" come back to android studio, you will get drawable folder under res directory.

Set the file structure to project then under app/src/main/res you can simply create a drawable folder. Just right click the res folder and create a new directory. Name it drawable.
