Preview
Once an Application has been configured as a Curated visualization, click the Preview button to see what the Application will look like when shown in Easy Answers. In general, interactions with the Application including single- and double-click actions available on links and in charts will also be available in the Preview mode. Layout options managing the size of the Micro Applications will not be used in Preview, but will be used when the App is shown in the Easy Answers Results and Dashboard pages. Some complex Applications requiring input request parameters may not be fully compliant in Preview mode.
Before clicking the Preview button, make sure to save the MSO using the Save option in the Header.
