Can't adjust any properties

Hi, I'm using the Windows 64bit version of Eclipse, and am unable to adjust the properties within the Graphical Layout editor. For example, when I click on the typeface option within textview (and having selected my Button), the various options will pop up in a box (normal, sans, etc), but when I double click an option/highlight it and click Enter, my choice is not selected. The only way I've been able to edit a textview property is by first inputting it within activity_main.xml (E.g, by declaring the text size as 32sp within activity_main.xml, 32sp then appeared adjacent to the text size option within the properties menu, and my font was successfully changed)

I'd really appreciate any help, and I'm sorry if my question is confusion/too wordy. I'm new to this!

All the best, Ted

Hey, fixed the problem. If anyone's encountering the same issue, I solved it by installing all available API19 updates through the SDK manager (I'm not sure which update specifically fixed the problem)
