Is it possible to load network images in the compose preview?

I’m thinking no. I wasn’t able to get it to load so instead had it show a placeholder image in preview mode.
```if (LocalInspectionMode.current || state !is ImagePainter.State.Empty ) {
    placeholder()
}```


that is sad, but thanks for the little workaround for placeholders in preview mode

I should say that I remember it working when you deploy the preview to device. I just had issues when using Preview in android studio (which is where its most useful for me).

The preview in Android Studio doesn't (generally) have access to the network, so no way to load images.
