The Preview

Virtual Spaces provides a preview for the generated webpages. If you select a Scene, Slide or Branching Point Virtual Spaces can generate a preview.

To open the preview select "Show Preview" from the "Project" menu (see image below).

Then select a Scene, Slide or Branching Point in the editor or in the tree view. There are two types of previews: an overview preview and an full-size preview. In the overview preview there is a small image of the generated webpage shown. Notice: The overview preview is only available on Mac OS X.

The full-size preview shows the generated webpage in real size. You will probably only see a part of the webpage in the preview view. If you double-click on the tab header the view is maximized and all other views are minimized. Double-click again to get all views back.

Notice: Make sure that the editor is active (tab header is highlighted) if you select an element in the editor. Second, if you switch from the overview preview to the full-size preview you probably have to select the element again.

Attention: It is recommended to close the preview if you don't need it, because it makes the application noticeable slower.
