Answer 1

If it's just language, what you did should fix it. Please check to see if the previewer is up-to-date:

Also, there are some previews that are not supported, please check out Previewer's details: https://developer.harmonyos.com/en/docs/documentation/doc-guides/previewer-0000001054328973

Previewer FAQ: https://developer.harmonyos.com/en/docs/documentation/doc-guides/faq-previewer-operating-0000001056617760

If the error still exists, please share the error log for further investigation.

Answer 2

Or you could just hardcode the text and ignore the warnings Eg: In this line -> ohos:text="$string:entry_MainAbility" Change the content between the "" into whatever you like

Say like ohos:text="Hello Rohan"
