Composable placeholders already worked, but resource and drawable placeholders did not. Presumably some part of the production codepath isn't supported by the Android Studio renderer. The actual display of the resources seems to work fine, we just never get to that point in Glide's code. Debugging exactly what's happening seems mostly impossible. I don't see a way to view logs or debug code running in the Android Studio preview renderer.
For now we can work around whatever the issue is by rendering resources and drawables when in preview mode earlier than normal.
