'drawable-xxxx' is one of several others used for ldpi, mdpi, hdpi, xhdpi, etc... Unlike xcode, these images keep the same name, but live in a different location. With respect to the emulator not updating, when the dialog box asks if you want to refresh, do you? If so, then the changes are implemented. This will be the same json that is in the control panel, so you may want to ensure that the changes you expect to see are actually being changed in the control panel. Watch your logcat... the information there will tell you everything going on.
