<h1>Preview</h1>
<p>The Preview view, which is part of the Install/Update
perspective, displays detailed information about the current active selection.
Its content changes as the selection changes.
</p>
<p>In some cases, the Preview is simply an extended description of the selection,
or a page offering suggested actions based on the selection. In other cases
the preview can be used to perform specific actions against the selection.
</p>
<p>Preview for the current configuration displays information about the primary
feature defined for the workspace.</p>

<p>Preview for a selected feature displays relevant installation information
about the feature. If an action can be taken against the selection, it
shows as an action button in the preview.</p>
