I Created a project using Android Studio 2.0 ,and now i want to create a blank activity , but there is no "Blank Activity" item in
( Right-Click on project package and then --> New -> Activity ) sub-menu.

when i click on ( New -> Activity -> Gallery... ) i meet a window without "Blank Activity" Option like this. New -> Activity -> Gallery...

i only want to have an activity like this
Activity with 3-dot menu

The "Basic Activity" template probably is the closest match to the former "Blank Activity".

That being said:

  • Google is welcome to change templates at any time. Please do not assume that templates with magic names, like "Blank Activity", always will exist.

  • Whether this makes your job "easier" depends entirely upon what you think of Google's activity templates.
