I cannot see interactive mode for the preview when using Jetpack Compose in Android Studio

I am using Android Studio Arctic Fox | 2020.3.1 Beta 2 I cannot see the interactive mode icon in the preview. Is this version support such option?

I want to be able to interact with the preview (for example click on the buttons) without deploying the apk on the device:

For now i see only the "Deploy preview" option. Is there something I am missing to use the interactive mode?

This option is disabled by default on Arctic Fox because is considered experimental. So you must enable it in File > Settings > Experimental (Win) or Android Studio > Preferences > Experimental (Mac OS X)
