Making edits in Code and Design View to objects might permanently expand collapsed code fragments

Issue

---

Editing objects while in Code and Design View (Split View) might permanently expand code fragments. Tasks that can result in this include moving an image into a table cell or running a Find and Replace All command.

Reason

---

This is an issue caused by Design and Code Views being open at the same time, resulting in the two views incorrectly syncing with each other. (Ref: 188441)

Solution

---

Make sure to use Design View or Code View fully expanded (not split view) when needing to modify objects that reside within a code fragment.
