    Hi Anz,

    These methods are called to render the field in the form design mode.

    The RenderPreview let's you define a markup for the field to display in designer

    The RenderPreview let's you define a markup with prevalues if your fieldtype supports prevalues.

    I recommend you have a look at the sharde source : http://our.umbraco.org/projects/developer-tools/umbraco-contour-shared-source

    You will find some examples there. Look at the dropdown to see examples of both methods.
