# previewing

> This property toggles previewing in the Animation window.

## Definition

* **Type:** Property
* **Namespace:** [UnityEditor](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityeditor.md)
* **Assembly:** UnityEditor

```csharp
public bool previewing { get; set; }
```

### Remarks

Previewing allows the Animation window to update the animated Game Object hierarchy in the Scene View with animated values. Disabling this also disables [AnimationWindow.recording](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityeditor/animationwindow/recording.md) and [AnimationWindow.playing](/engine/6000.0/script-reference/unityeditor/animationwindow/playing.md).
