If you can’t find it through the search, it’s still can be found in the below Plugin >
Flutter.DeviceSelector.Issue still exist on Official version of intellij with new UI @azeek but @qseworks tips work for me.
@qseworks i tried your fix as described. When you reopen the project, the device selector is available for a few seconds but disappears. This was the same behavior before I customized the toolbar as well.
I guess i will try to downgrade Intellij to before the UI update. I cannot find the New UI plugin or the toggle in preferences 😕 .
Official version of intellij with new UI is out. Now is the time to take care of this.
With the 2023.1 upgrade, this fix no longer works. I’m on Mac OS 13.X. I fact I can’t even on the old UI.
@uditrugman Please create a separate issue, including the output of
Tools > Flutter > Flutter Doctor. Also include repro steps, as the problem does not occur for me.This problem is fixed in version 71.1, which is available now.
the device selector does not appear in the toolbar with the old UI. it appears for 1-2 seconds during startup and then disappears
