After switching to Code View in a "Send an email" step, how do you switch back to normal view?

I am composing a message and wanted to edit the html of the text but now I can't get back to the normal mode.

    I have the same problem, the button to switch off the code view is greyed out and won't let me switch back.  Has anyone found a solution?

    I'm having the same issue; the </> is greyed out.... any solution? I tried opening a new window, logging into a diff terminal, and still the same issue. It seems to only apply to that specific flow, not others.

    Could be there's some invalid HTML syntax which needs to be corrected? Does the button come back to life if you ctrl-x the contents out? If so, use an online HTML validator to check your code.

    I keep re-writing my flow because the 'code view' is disabled anytime an apply to each is added to 'Send an Email'. I find this very frustrating I can't switch back. I think this must be a bug in the tool.

    It happens to me too.

    After I delete all the email body, then i can switch back.

    Not ideal solution as you want to use both the code view and the text view to edit the email body.

    @Anonymous Automate, will you have a fix for this anytime soon?

    I found if you delete the dynamic content references out, you can then switch back. Not ideal because you still have to add them all back manually, but at least you're not reconstructing the whole thing.
