Working with components in Live Preview

The Live Preview feature lets you view components on the Stage as they will appear in the published movie. Live Preview, enabled by default, lets you see the approximate size and appearance the component will have in the published movie. Live Preview does not reflect changes you make to component property settings or to component skins. Components in Live Preview are not functional. To test component functionality, you can use the Control > Test Movie command.

Push Button component with Live Preview enabled, and with Live Preview disabled
 

 
To turn Live Preview on or off:

Choose Control > Enable Live Preview. A check mark next to the option indicates that it is enabled.
