When I'm in the XML Perspective, editing a layout XML file, I can see each property in the properties view. 
I want to enter a value in a property, but the button that should open a popup with multiple choises (for example in the "layout_gravity" property, I should see a popup with tickables values like "center", "left", "horizontal_center", etc, like under Win 7) simply doesn't work. It does nothing at all.
When I manually insert a value in a field, and hit the Enter button to confirm it, this value disappears, and it reappears only when i click on the value field again.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.in the XML Perspective, editing an XML layout file
2.click on a View or any other item
3.click the button in a value field

Please provide screenshots describing what you're trying to do.

I'm going to guess this is Android.

The value-insert button (see the screenshot, in the red circle) doesn't work.

I think you want bug 308572.

> I think you want bug 308572.

It seems the same bug (sorry: haven't founded it), but in addition there is the problem of the value "disappearance" pressing Enter after the value digitation, that maybe is a new one.

This has nothing to do with JDT UI. Please open a bug against your Android plug-in. They should investigate first and tell the Platform UI team if they found the issue is really in the Properties view.
