Android Studio preview doesn't show when a floating action button is in the layout

Exactly as the title suggests when I have a floating action button anywhere in my layout in any xml file the preview stops working, I can literally comment it out and it will instantly redraw perfectly. any ideas?

I have tried resetting multiple times syncing, invalidating caches etc. The only thing I can think of is I use clans floating action button in my project, but it's the Google one that breaks my preview.

Also using AndroidX

com.google.android.material.floatingactionbutton.FloatingActionButton

Android Studio 3.4.1 Build #AI-183.6156.11.34.5522156, built on May 1, 2019 JRE: 1.8.0_152-release-1343-b01 x86_64 JVM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM by JetBrains s.r.o macOS 10.14.3

EDIT

Just playing around with it now and I manage to make it throw an an error:
