Problem Statement

The issue with switching images between Draft, Preview, and Published states appears to be resolved; however, a new problem has been observed.

When viewing contentlets, the correct titles are displayed, and the initial image loads correctly. However, there is an issue when handling future contentlets with scheduled publish dates.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a banner contentlet with Image1 in the Published state.
2. Create another contentlet (same banner) in the Working state with Image2, scheduled to be published in the future (e.g., March 15).
3. Use the calendar feature to preview the content for March 15.

Expected Behavior:
• The future contentlet should display Image2 as it is the image associated with the scheduled version.

Actual Behavior:
• Instead of showing Image2, the old Image1 remains visible when previewing the future state.

Passed QA!
Looks great!
I even added a ViewTool that uses the TM session attribute in a template. When rendered, the attribute is removed properly when no publishDate is passed.
