Description

Feature request

Is your feature request related to a problem?

Currently, when I'm creating a hosted survey, its a little odd that the preview shows the popover one.

Not seeing a preview of how my hosted survey makes me feel anxious; but that could just be me.

Describe the solution you'd like

I love the pop over survey preview. Could we have something similar for hosted survey as well?

Additional context

The popover survey styling seems alittle different from the hosted one, so it would be nice to have a preview just for hosted survey!

Research direction

Start from the hosted survey creation flow and compare its current preview with the existing popover survey preview. Done means the hosted survey has its own preview that reflects hosted survey styling rather than showing only the popover version.
