I am new to Android development.

At various times I have noticed that the top of a Kotlin file shows import... and I have to click it each time to display the actual import directives.

What is that behavior? Why do the import directives not just display each time I open the file?

They're collapsed to reduce clutter so you can focus on the code itself. Most of the time there's no need to deal with the imports directly.

You can change this behavior in Settings -> Editor -> General -> Code folding. Disable "Imports" in the "General" section.
