Previewing and comparing optimization settings
The document preview buttons display the graphic as it would appear in a web browser, based on
optimization settings. You can preview rollover and navigation behaviors, as well as animation.
The Original button and the document preview buttons
The document preview buttons display a document's total size, estimated download time, and file
format. The estimated download time is the average amount of time it would take to download
all the document's slices and frames on a 56K modem. The 2-Up and 4-Up views display
additional information that varies depending on the file type selected.
You can use the Optimize panel to optimize a document while viewing a preview as if you were in
Original view. You can optimize the entire document at once or only selected slices. The slice
overlay helps you differentiate the slices currently being optimized from the rest of the document.
The slice overlay displays areas not currently being optimized with a dimmed, transparent white
tint. You can turn the slice overlay on or off.
When you optimize a selected slice, the slices not being optimized are dimmed.
To preview a graphic based on the current optimization settings:
•
Click the Preview button in the upper left of the Document window.
Note: Click Hide Slices in the Tools panel to hide slices and slice guides while previewing.
