 * Hello,
 * Is it possible to switch between the block editor and preview mode?
    I tried 
   all options for Show block preview in editor But within all options i don’t see
   a possibility to switch between the content editor and the preview of the block
 * Thanks, and what a great plugin!

 * Hi.
 * I don’t quite understand what are you talking about. Could you explain more? 
   Screenshots will be also helpful.

 * Hi Thank you for your reply.
    I used to create custom blocks with ACF, now i’m
   trying your plugin
 * So i used to switch within each block between edit
    [https://bpstaging.ponzotheme.nl/edit.png](https://bpstaging.ponzotheme.nl/edit.png)
 * and preview
    [https://bpstaging.ponzotheme.nl/preview.png](https://bpstaging.ponzotheme.nl/preview.png)
 * with the preview and pencil icon.
 * Within lazyblocks, i always see the wite panel, and I’m not able to switch between
   my content editor, and preview within the same block (without the white panel)
 * Thanks!
 * Bonus, i added tabs within acf to create hierarchy for the user within the block.
   
   Eg text, visual etc

 * Hi.
 * You can only change displaying preview condition here:
 * [[
 * Also, you can change control settings:
 * 1. Display control in Inspector only (Gutenberg side panel)
    2. Hide control 
   from the content if the block is not selected
 * [[
 * “Preview” button as in ACF is not in plans.

 * Thank you for your reply
    Switching between preview and edit is a huge plus for
   when editing blocks.
 * Best!
