Seems to be a known bug of Eclipse 4.2: 
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=404776
Is fixed in Eclipse 4.3, so for openHAB this depends on issue 367.

Could you try the mentioned workaround (adding 
-Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.DefaultType=mozilla to openHAB-Designer.ini)?

FYI - This workaround is still seemingly required in v1.6.1 (64 bit) designer.  
I'm running Ubuntu Desktop 14.10, full details of 'java -v' are as follows:

Java version "1.7.0_72"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_72-b14)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.72-b04, mixed mode)
