Issue of target of the formatting...

You are selecting the Frame for the object (image and its Figure mode caption), not just the image. The image has to be isolated for its filter controls (differ depending on image type) to activate.

Click outside the Frame (not directly into the object), then reselect just the image. 

With just the image selected the appropriate image controls are enabled. Reasonable UX and behavior.
