Preview a layout
With preview, you can test a layout before it is live on your website. The preview replaces a web page's existing layout with the new layout, but it does not alter the actual web page.
Tip: Preview uses the names of content placeholder panes to determine where to display page content. For example, content in an existing layout's pane "1" appears in the new layout's pane "1." If content placeholder names do not match, then page content does not appear in the preview.
