Just started a new web forms project in Visual Studio 2012.
Opened my aspx page in 2012 and there is no Split or Design View?
I am using the RTM version.
Have they honestly taken this out? If not, where can I find them?

Click Remove Split on the Window menu to restore the single view. You can use tabs to arrange your layout in several different ways. For example, you can view a preview of a file in the editor without opening the file, you can group your tabs, and more.
In Visual Studio, to change the Default View from Design View to Source View, or Split view, do the following. In the menu, go to “Tools” > “Options.” Once in options, select the “HTML Designer” Section. Next, select your default view of choice, Design View, Source View, or Split view. Click “OK.” Then restart Visual Studio.
To help you edit a page, Design view displays certain elements, such as hidden fields, that would normally not be visible in the browser. Design view also displays gray boxes or other representations of ASP.NET server controls, such as data source controls, that do not render markup at run time.
Additionally, you can see in the above image ( Red Arrow →) when in Split View you have the option to Split Horizontally or Vertically.
Follow theses steps
Go to Tools --> Select Options
Tick the box at the bottom of this dialog: Show all settings.
Select HTML Designer --> Enable HTML designer
