Its broken in 27.2.0. Im using a smart object and it doesnt wrap from edge to edge. It instead crops the smart object. It's not working like it used to. Please restore former functionality,

Hi @shaunaparmesan

Yes, Pattern Preview is not yet supported with Flow Canvas. It should be implemented in the next few weeks.

UPDATE: I figured out what may be causing that glitch. 

Early access - prerelease 

I had flowcanvas, flowcompositing, and droverUI (both) enabled, and once disabled and restarted Photoshop and Pattern Preview was working again. So something within those tech previews disables the preview function, but turning them off makes it work again.
