AI Thread Summary
The "Preview" tool allows users to toggle between preview mode and editing mode using a designated icon. Users have reported that the tool can be inconsistent, sometimes not displaying the preview as expected. To return to editing after previewing, simply press the preview icon again. It is important to note that simultaneous editing and previewing is not currently supported. Understanding these functionalities can enhance the user experience when working with the tool.

Hi PF

First I must apologize for posting a trivial question; I did it when published "Advice to obtain the domain of compound functions": the answer was given at the same time. I also typed bad, I forgot one delimiter.
How works Preview tool? How can I make use of it to obtain a preview as many times as I need? I didn't manage to display it more that one time.

Regards!

You should be able to toggle preview mode using the icon (button). Sometimes it is a little funky. Notice the other buttons change to red in preview mode

Just press the preview icon again to continue editing. Unfortunately it's currently not possible to have editing and preview at the same time.

Thread 'Thank you to mentors, advisors and members'

I want to thank those members who interacted with me a couple of years ago in two Optics Forum threads. They were @Drakkith, @hutchphd, @Gleb1964, and @KAHR-Alpha.

Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...

Thread 'Site Usability nitpick -- Hyperlinks should be underlined'

This came up in my job today (UXP). Never thought to raise it here on PF till now. Hyperlinks really should be underlined at all times. PF only underlines them when they are rolled over. Colour alone (especially dark blue/purple) makes it difficult to spot a hyperlink in a large block of text (or even a small one). Not everyone can see perfectly. Even if they don't suffer from colour deficiency, not everyone has the visual acuity to distinguish two very close shades of text. Hover actions...

Thread 'Thank you physics forums, 20 years later'

About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
