How do I get back to the .lay visual editor after a run [message #34468]

I made my first .lay file work.
Once it compiles and run, theIDE turns the .lay visual editor into a text file with the LAYOUT macro struct. Nice but how do I get back to the visual editor?
I expect I must be blind or just plain stupid.
My work-around is to restart the ide.

(I did search and scan the Help files).
Regards,
Conrad

Thanks to all!
As I suspected, I was blind & probably stupid.
I never even considered trying the Edit menu!
Learning new ways of doings things can be a trial. I had a serious hard time adding new files until I finally stumbled upon it while reading the documentation for a completely different reason. Ok, so "Open.." and "New.." are similar actions but I have used a New menu item in hundreds of applications since my first 512k Fat Mac in 1985...
Thanks again,
Conrad
