AxEmojiPopupLayout - Failed to instantiate one or more classes

[colorgold]

I am unable to preview the design of my xml file on Android Studio. Here's how I have added it to my code:

<com.aghajari.emojiview.view.AXEmojiPopupLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:id="@+id/emojiLayout"
        android:layout_gravity="bottom"
        />

Here is the error that it shows:

The following classes could not be instantiated:
- com.aghajari.emojiview.view.AXEmojiPopupLayout (Open Class, Show Exception, Clear Cache)

 Tip: Use View.isInEditMode() in your custom views to skip code or show sample data when shown in the IDE.  If this is an unexpected error you can also try to build the project, then manually refresh the layout.

I tried rebuilding the project and refreshing the layout, but it does not work. Please let me know if there's a way I can fix this.

Thank you!
