Right now it seems you can only render previews of selected objects or collections. If you wanna make a preview for a nodegroup or other it doesn't work like that.

Also animations like this. I'm not able to use the asset snapshots for the poses

Feature Request: Ability to snapshot World asset previews from camera view.

Hi,

I love the plugin and use it often.

Is it possible add the functionality to generate material thumbnails? Right now if I try generating a thumbnail for a material it doesn't do anything (the usual uv sphere material thumbnail shows up instead).

The default blender material thumbnail generation has issues. Sometimes I need a close up shot, or even a far away shot with a subdivision / displacement setup. I end up with materials that are hard to tell apart or the thumbnail looks nothing like when I apply them. I'd love to use asset_snapshot to override material thumbnails.

When using the addon in Blender 4.0.0 builds, there is an issue. There seems to be some breaking API changes that also breaks the addon.

i have 2 cameras in my scene, and with the second selected. Using the snapshot buttons it still uses the first one. Despite me selecting the new camera as active in the outliner

Instead of taking space in the 3d view, it would make sense if it could be added as buttons in the asset browser

I installed the addon and when I looked for the "snapshot" operator nothing showed up.

testing this on:
blender 3.0.0
windows 10
