I think that is how it is supposed to be. To create an email in code mode click into the advanced tab to access the HTML code editor.

Thats strange, because it says otherwise in Documentation and its definitely handy to have code on one side and preview next to it

With HTML editor I can not see any previews

You can choose a template, and use codemode there
