Show Image Preview - This setting is enabled by default. When enabled, the image you've added to a section will be displayed as a thumbnail on the same page as your text notes. If a section has no image, an empty thumbnail icon will be shown instead. You can tap the Image Preview thumbnail at any time to quickly switch to the Image Pane.

If you have added a PDF file to your project, an additional 'Add a PDF page' button will be displayed on the right-hand side of the Image Preview (though only if the section doesn't yet have an image or PDF page added). Tapping the 'Add a PDF page' button will take you to the PDF page picker. Read more about working with PDF files  here .
