'Resource.Dimension' does not contain a definition for

Question

Visual Studio 2017 intellisense underline all dimension resources in my cs code with the error: Resource.Dimension does not contain a definition for...

Intellisense offer me only standard dimensions properties.

File with my dimensions is placed in Resources\values\dimens.xml.

This file has following content:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<resources>
  <dimen name="main_text_item_size">17dp</dimen>
</resources>

All others resources are okay and I can work with them without any problem.

My configuration: VS 2017, jdk1.8.0_172

References: Xamarin.Android.Support.v7.AppCompat v27.0.2, Xamarin.Android.Support v27.0.2

Answer 1

The one solution that I found is copying my Resource.Designer.cs file to ../obj/debug/designtime location where I overwrite original file.

And now everything is OK and I do not have any underlined resource properties in my cs files.
