Yes the image preview on the screen. It works on similar Ender models like the V2 with the use of a post processing script (https://github.com/KenHuffman/UltimakerCuraScripts) but nothing I've tried has yet worked.

Says Creality https://www.reddit.com/r/Ender3V3SE/comments/16o7oj9/how_to_generate_correct_thumbnail/

Contacted creality support and answer from their tech team was: "Hi, the screen of this printer itself doesn't support preview image, it can't realize what you wa. Which is kinda crazy since the default image is there but well... That's how it goes I guess.
