Viewing layers in Preview or Keyline mode

You can view layers as they will appear when printed in Preview mode, or as outlines in Keyline mode. A filled circle to the left of the layer name in the Layers panel indicates Preview mode; a hollow circle indicates Keyline mode.

To switch between Preview and Keyline modes, do one of the following:

In the Layers panel, click the circle icon to the left of the layer name. The Preview mode icon is a solid circle; the Keyline mode icon is hollow circle.

To switch between Preview and Keyline modes for a contiguous selection of layers, drag through the circle icon column for those layers.

To switch the view of all layers, Control-click (Windows) or Option-click (Macintosh) the circle icon to the left of any layer name.
