Cannot exit decal editor

There is just no way to exit the decal editor. Once I enter I'm stuck in the screen permanently - I've tried every single button on my keyboard and Xbox One controller and none of them allow me to exit the editor, even after saving. I cannot even select another decal to edit. The only way to continue playing is to quit the game with alt + F4 and reconnect... not an ideal solution.

The specific screen I get stuck in is in the attached screenshot.

I was able to exit only once by pressing enter on a decal followed by some combination of buttons, but when I tried to do it again it seems like the enter key does not register because nothing happens. I'm open to the possibility that the issue is caused by the enter key not working.

Thanks in advance for any help.
