Colors is empty

When I choose the three dots after background android studio comes up with a window that looks like what's in the video, but there are no colors to choose from.

There should be sections like Android and Project in that new window and they should have arrows on the left side. When you click the arrows, you should get expanded view with colors and stuff.
