I don’t know when it happened, but after I upgrade to Stacks 4 I can’t change view mode in edit mode, it has disappered? ![26](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/2X/c/c7620ee938895e2e14659f1647759174e764edc3.png)

I think this feature has disappeared. I can’t see it.

We are now stuck in venti mode. That view modes toggle confused way too many people.

ok - but could it influence on Foundry (sorry Joe) were page background now is visible, which it haven’t been before. Visibility does reading of text i Edit mode almost unable if background in textbox doesn’t have a color background - have a look at screendump.  
I have written to Elixir about this subject, but they haven’t answered yet.

@jojaeger – Replied to you on the Elixir forum where you asked.

That said, I’ll cross post the answer here for you:

This is why the toggle doesn’t work any longer. The toggle was set to affect that specialized tag and not the `body` tag. The `body` tag was only used in Preview mode ad on the Published page.
