The only way to edit layouts in Android is in xml. No pixel perfect single aspect ratio here. The visual layout tool is a joke and should only be used to quickly see what it might look like on a device of various resolutions. Emphasis on might.
The Android emulator is an embarassment though. Just horrible. The Android x86 project looks promising for a fast virtualized replacement.
