I've been a customer for over 10 years and just downloaded the latest HTML editor. I cannot find how to switch to the visual editor.

It's no longer supported and removed from the app. You can do a split screen preview as you work on your site.:cool: Hit F12.

It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

The two were never compatible, If you like visual editing try the Visual Site Editor it is a dream to use. It takes coding right out of the equation. But you can import VSD pages into the editor for additions if desired.
The editor is css, tables, etc. The VSD is all absolute positioning with beautiful constructed coding.
For instance it takes the editor to do this, My latest plaything. It could be added to a VSD page but hardly necessary as positioning is inbuilt.

I am shocked. I knew some somersault will happen at update again. Nobody warned that visual editor has disappeared. Otherwise I would use the old version of editor.

Anybody knowing for an other good visual editor?

Oops I think 2 of us were deleting a duplicate post and Janez, your post asking what VSD was and something else was deleted. Sorry bout that. I don't remember what the other one was you asked about, but VSD stands for Visual Site Designer if that helps, and that's the program that Eric put the link for above :)
