title: Visual Studio Community 2015 Installing Android API Level 8
body: <p>I installed VS2015 community to try its android development capability.</p>
  
  <p>During the installation I was notified that certain needed components were already present (I have android studio installed).</p>
  
  <p>After starting a project and in its property settings under Application I only have 3 API levels to target.</p>
  
  <p>Under the label "Compile using Android version:" the 3 options are...</p>
  
  <p>API level 19,
  API level 21,
  API level 22</p>
  
  <p>The SDK's I have installed in Android studio are</p>
  
  <p>8,
  19,
  21,
  22</p>
  
  <p>I need to target android 2.2 froyo minimum which I believe is API level 8.</p>
  
  <p>How can I add ability to use API level 8?</p>
  
  <p>Here is the contents of error window which shows when I try to run a test app...</p>
  
  <p>"Target device (emulator-5554) has an API level of 8, but this application has a minimum API level of 11 set.</p>
  
  <p>The minimum API level can be changed in the project properties on the Android Manifest tab."</p>
  
  <p>I am very new to Android development, and apologise for any incorrect terminology, or if the question seems too basic.</p>
  
  <p>PS, the tag says visual studio preview, it is not.</p>
