The issue was fixed in the API 21 rendering library. As a workaround, you can use the rendering library from API 20 in the meanwhile.

1. Download the SDK platform for API 20 (4.4W)
2. Navigate to your sdk folder (should be like D:\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20140321\sdk)
3. Go to platforms folder -> android-21 folder -> data folder
4. Rename layoutlib.jar (for backup purpose)
5. Copy the same file from your android-20 folder to this folder
6. Restart Eclipse
