How to enable build speed window in android studio?

Question

I just came to know that in the latest Android Studio 4.0, there is a Build Speed Window which will help to understand and diagnose issues with the build process. But somehow, that Build Speed Window is not appearing after the build is successful. Does anyone know how to enable the build speed window?

Answer 1

Android Studio 4.0 Canary 3

Android Gradle plugin 4.0.0-alpha03 and higher

Step 1: Build > Make Project from the menu bar

Step 2: Select View > Tool Windows > Build from the menu bar.

After Android Studio finishes building your project, Open the Build Speed window in one of the following ways:

Step 3: Click the Build Speed tab. or Click the link in the right side of the Build Output window.

If you are using android studio 4.0 beta channel, build speed is known as build analyzer.

refer this documentation.

I hope this helps.

@josepraveen answers is the correct one. I just want to add that you should also make sure that you have com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.0.0 under dependencies in the build.gradle of the parent Then do the step 1 etc
