2,893 PointsWhy is the Preview tab not working?
I used to be able to check my work with the preview button but now it does nothing until I click Check work. why was this changed, I don't like it.
I liked the way it used to work because it enables you to see exactly what your code does before you submit it or after.

2,893 PointsG'day Josephine,
thanks for taking the time to reply to this thread, I was beginning to think I was the only one experiencing this behaviour with the preview button.
It WAS great to be able to see exactly how each property or value affects the visual results, It gives you confidence that your answer is correct if you can see the result, the reasoning behind removing this feature eludes me.
In the words of Julius Sumner Miller one might ask... "Why is it so".

11,153 PointsI have the same problem. I assumed my work was just taking a bit of time to refresh and upload, but no matter how long I leave it the preview feature doesn't show my latest work until I click "check work", just like you.
