Preview layout (in icon) in cc libraries?

In my old style library (I'm not sure if I am using the correct terms, but hopefully you understand what I mean) I used to be able to preview the saved layout in the list of layouts). However, when I moved them all to CC libraries I only see blank icons next to them in the list. Is there anyway I can preview the layouts in the list?

There is no content in the frames. That's not somehing CC Libraries was designed for. It will copy the frames but there is nothing to show a preview of. For that case, stick with your INDL file.

I have created these various collections of frames which I use when designing my photo book pages. I attach what it looked like in the indl file as what it looks lik in the CC library.

I know you're talking about saving the old-style INDL file. But an INDL file can contain different kinds of content ("layouts") - text, images, etc.

 

CC Libraries also support different kinds of content.

 

What kind of content are you trying to move to a CC library? A screen shot and some description would be helpful.
