Android studio properties window not showing

so i've learning a little about android studio recently, but every video i see, when they modify something from the "properties" window i have issues because mine says "atributes" and misses a lot of properties.

Does anyone know how to make it appear? I have already tried a lot of stuff, like Window > restore default layout, also deleting the workspace, reinstalling android studio but i cant make it work.

I'll leave an imagen to show how i see it

But every video i see has this

look at how many properties they have vs what i have, i already pressed the "view all atributtes" button

Thanks!

I went into activity_main.xml, manually changed the text size of a button:

    <TextView

        android:id="@+id/text_view_p1"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:text="Player 1: 0"
        android:textSize="30sp" />

Then I changed it back to the original size. Attributes window magically appeared again. Before I tried that, nothing else worked

To see the "attributes" table, you only need to check the "gear" icon on that window and select "All attributes table" instead of "XML attribute table".
