CMP 1.10 now supports the `androidx.Preview` annotation in common code, but `@PreviewLightDark` is not supported yet?

There was a bug with those built-in multipreviews not rendering, but should be fixed now afaik <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KMT-1781>

Is this what you're seeing? And if so, what's your IDE version?

I am using this version
```Android Studio Panda 1 | 2025.3.1```
This is what I see, if I'm trying to use `@PreviewLightDark`

Oh yeah, I'm seeing the same :thinking_face: Thanks for the report, I'll look into what's up with the versioning here. But the fix is definitely on its way at least!

The fix will be in the Panda 2 version of the plugin, but it hasn't shipped yet. There's a tracking issue for it: <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KMT-2206|https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KMT-2206>

For now you can just add both these to your preview:

```@Preview(name = "Light")
@Preview(name = "Dark", uiMode = AndroidUiModes.UI_MODE_NIGHT_YES or AndroidUiModes.UI_MODE_TYPE_NORMAL)```
It’s the same thing the `@PreviewLightDark` does.

<@U2UJXRF0W> sorry to ping you again, but should these multi-previews be working now? I am on `Android Studio Panda 2 | 2025.3.2` but can't seem to get these working yet. Previews annotated with `@PreviewLightDark` are simply ignored in the preview window.

Panda 3 Canary 4 includes the fix for Android Studio, so that or any newer version should work
