Using visual editor on MinervaNeue Desktop mode

I dont have the option to use Visual editor on MinervaNeue desktop mode. Am I missing something? The mobile editor lacks in functionality and I want desktop users to have more options than the ones that are given in the mobile mode.

Thanks!

Well... On the one hand, this skin isn't technically on the list of supported skins for VisualEditor (if memory serves). On the other hand, that's really, seriously broken. It looks like you can only edit (in any editor) once, and then nothing happens if you click the edit buttons a second time. I'll file a bug today, and I think it's likely to get some attention soon.

Great! the MinervaNeue skin is pretty buggy and I've spent many hours tinkering with it. I found a solution and posted it here, for those who are interested:Topic:Un0ayq1h8pw5a2sv

Can you try something for me? Once you open the (wikitext) editor, could you find the pencil icon in the toolbar, and see if it lets you switch to visual mode?

No it doesnt let me :(

This is supposed to be mostly fixed – at this site, anyway. It won't reach most of the Wikipedias for a couple of days. Would you like to try it out in User:Whatamidoing (WMF)/Sandbox?

Seems to work in the sandbox... hm... oh well, my fix worked for me : )
