   * Outline frames will be disable in the preview mode.
   * Instead of preview mode button, we should have close preview button at the same place.
- * Frame borders will be visible if they are set so, the page borders will be visible also (all of them).
-  * If some border is set to different than 0 value, it will be visible. 
+ * Frame borders will be visible if they are set so, the page borders will be visible also (all of them). This means that in preview mode tha page borders will be visible (left, top, right, bottom), the frame borders will be visible too(again, left, top, right, bottom).
  * All menu items related to editing, for example the Insert menu, File->Save, should be disabled. Decide how the items will be disabled - whether each item/functionality will watch the current book previewMode option, or someone will disallow book editing. If every item will disable itself, define which are these items.
  * Tabs that allow editing are in disable mode and this should be visible for the user.

 == Task requirements ==
- * Grate a prototype of the preview mode.
- * Update the current design.
+ * Ensure the reader work area is used in preview mode. It must hide all the frames outside the page borders, but must not hide the book extras. In reader area the page borders and frame borders will not be hidden.
+ * Change the "preview mode" checkbox with a button. It will open a copy of the book in preview mode, not the book itself. The same button in the copy will be replaced with one, which closes the preview. 
+ * In preview mode, all halos must be hidden. Menubars concerning book editing must be disabled. If there is time left, try to disable palettes related to editing and user interactions which could change the book.
+ * In preview mode, links must be functional, timelines too. But timeline editing must not. 
+ * If possible (because of other implementors), check that presentation mode uses the preview mode correctly. Since the View menu is implemented in another task, which is not ready, this one could not require putting items in that menu.
