Question I have regarding print preview...What are the white indicators that are showing up on this print preview, will it affect my print,  and is there a way to get rid off them?

I thought they might be seams but seems strange to have they in random places.

    They are seams. Or actually they are starts and stops of extruded parts. One place where such starts/stops happen is at the Z seam (where one layer stops, the z is increased, and the next layer starts). But there are also places where the extruder stops extruding, moves somewhere else within the layer, and then starts again. This can also leave a seam. Without a look at your model, it is hard to tell why Cura is doing this in this case.

        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
