# Enhanced previews: Sneak peeks into blocks and records

[date: 2025-02-28T15:25:26.643+01:00]

We’ve heard from many of you that it’s tough to quickly grasp what’s inside each record or block at a glance when shown in preview mode —especially when those blocks or records lack text fields.

To address this, we’ve introduced a new approach to displaying previews across the entire CMS: inline blocks, link fields, and even the item index, all benefit from clearer at-a-glance content!

**What's new?**

First, we’ve aligned how the “Presentation” tab works for both models and blocks, letting you pick a Title preview field and an Image preview.  
And second, we introduced new field types that can be selected as title and/or preview fields:

-   `Color` fields show a handy swatch (with optional opacity);
-   `Date`/`DateTime` fields use a quick calendar icon and display the date itself;
    
-   `Geolocation` fields bring in a map preview;
-   `Number` fields can be used as title and show their integer or floating-point value.
    

**How do I enable it?**  
Just head to the “Presentation” tab in your model or block settings to choose your Title and Image preview fields. No extra steps required!

**`Color`****,** **`Geolocation`****, and** **`Date`** **fields will also provide a much cleaner interface when set as Preview Fields.**

**Why does it matter?**

This update makes it faster and clearer to see what’s inside each record or block at a glance. If you’ve ever found yourself repeatedly opening blocks just to check their contents, you’ll love these new previews!
