&lt;h1&gt;Is there a preview option when updating a node, like there is when creating a new node?&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;No, there currently is no preview option when updating.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Preview for updates is a [id://461152|desired feature] and is [id://729004|technically possible], but simply has [id://729004|not yet] been [id://461152|implemented] by a [pmdev]il.  It is also not a priority as substantial updates are discouraged.  A substantial update should usually instead be done as a reply, so that people who are trying to follow the thread can notice that something substantial has been added.&lt;/p&gt;
