Preview mode in Rails Builder enables you to visualize how layouts will look in the TV app. This is particularly useful when you’ve created a new template, made changes to an existing one, or if any layouts are part of an experiment.
To preview a layout:
-
Click the Preview button at the top right of the Templates screen.
-
If the layout is part of an experiment and you want to preview what a target will see, select the required Target Segment from the dropdown list.
-
Select the required Device Target from the dropdown list.
-
Select the required Device Type from the dropdown list.
-
For a view of how the layout looks in different device formats, use the tabs at the top of the screen:
-
Monitor
-
Tablet
-
Phone Landscape
-
Phone Portrait
-
-
To close the preview and return to the Rails Builder screen, click the blue Template button at the top right of the screen.
