Previewing

Sizes

The viewport buttons in the top bar, or 1 to 5, show the background at common sizes: Hero (1440 × 720), Panel (960 × 540), Tile (420 × 420), Phone (390 × 844) and Full page. Some generators adapt to the shape, so check the sizes your page uses.

L switches between a dark and a light page, which changes the sample text and the picker’s contrast check.

The CSS fallback

Browsers without WebGPU show a CSS gradient compiled from the same file. The preview menu shows WebGPU, the CSS fallback, or both side by side, with a fidelity score: the average colour difference (ΔE-OK) between the two. Lower is closer. See What shows first.

Motion

The playback bar plays and pauses the animation (Space) and sets its speed. The speed in the Document tab’s Motion section is saved with the file; the playback speed is only for previewing.

Preview reduced motion shows what visitors who ask their system for less motion will see, as set by the document’s reduced-motion setting.

Focus

F hides the panels so you see only the background. Press F or Esc to bring them back.
