FoxTrot may have some trouble using the Quick Look preview for some document types, and this is the case for Scrivener files. We will try to improve this in the final version 7.0.
When the Quick Look preview can't be used, it normally displays a plain text version, but this requires:
1) using FoxTrot Pro
2) and having enabled "store document textual contents" in the configuration pane of the index
The spinning cog may appear if these conditions are not met

"J’ai axé mon travail à venir sur les capacités de FoxTrot à retrouver
les citations partielles cachées dans les auteurs médiévaux ! Et seul
lui y parvient (je n’ai les œuvres que de 250 auteurs sur 1500 ans,
environ, mais les plus cités !). Je trouve instantanément ce qui demande
des heures sans FoxTrot. Je reçois des demandes telles que : « quelqu’un
aurait-il dit, et en quel ouvrage : [une citation latine] » et FoxTrot
trouve aisément la citation même approximée !"
