Use the visual editing tools
Turn on the Edit toggle to use the visual editing tools while previewing the live app.
As shown above, when Edit is turned on as you position your cursor over a component in the visual editor, you can click to edit settings for the component. In some cases, a drop-down list displays to allow you to edit data, column settings, and column order, or view type-specific settings and data sources.
Turn off the Edit option to preview the live app without showing the visual editing tools.
