The preview functionality displays the content in the same way that it will be seen when it is served. In addition to seeing the ad, the preview evaluates the content to validate that it can be served and informs the designer about any problems that may exist.
Use the Preview button in the toolbar to start the process.
Once the preview starts, any animations and videos will play automatically on the right side of the screen.
