As you probably know, the Preview (eye) button in Sugar 7 allows you 
to view additional record details from a module or subpanel list, 
utilizing the right-hand side panel to display the information in a 
split-screen. This can save users a lot of time when working through a 
list of contacts or reviewing account history, for example.
Sugar 7.7 introduced a new option to allow editing in the preview 
pane. I found this new feature during a recent training class and am 
really excited about its potential.
Sugar administrators can turn on this feature from the System 
Settings administration tool. When enabled, this new feature allows 
users to click an “Edit” button on the preview pane to edit the data. 
This allows even more user efficiency when using the already-great 
preview feature.
