Ctrl-T is the default key to change between representations for both image editor and layout designer. If you run your application while the image editor or layout designer is in an active tab they will automatically be changed to the text representation to allow debugging. So press Ctr-T or do as I do: I always switch the tab to one containing source code.

On the other hand, default switching to text representation should be disabled IMO. Average users will not care about debugging image or layout macros, and the issue with users not knowing about Ctrl-T comes up every one or two months. Or at least a popup the first time this happens, informing the user and having a check box with “do not show this again”.


I think that the right solution for this problem should be adding two buttons in the layout/image editor above the column lists. One for editor mode, and one for text mode. And switching to text mode would add a header with the same two buttons over the code editor. Or maybe the buttons should be on the toolbar in editor mode.
