Editing a small CC Library object breaks the thumbnail
Editing small CC Library items leads to imminent damage to it's thumbnail.
1 Create an object in Illustrator (for testing purpose make it 4pt x 4pt)
2 Add it to cc library (noth that thumbnail is generated properly)
3 Edit the cc lib. object in illustrator (anything will do just add a rectangle anywhere on the canvas)
4 Save/close the CC lib object
Expected: the thumbnail is updated and represents the content of the CC item
Observed: the thumbnail is ridiculously small/not readable
Check the screenshots and video attached.

Hi Valerii,
Thanks for the confirmation. Since we are able to reproduce the issue, so we will review it and prioritize accordingly.
Thanks

Yes, as i have wrote in the header of the issue, it happens to CC objects with small size.

Thank you for leaving the comment Joe and noticing the issue. Our Indian friends from Adobe seem to be less responsive to the issues with less than 1000 ****** off designers. Sadly, the workaround you have kindly provided is not quite functional, as it just breaks the connections between the instances of the CC lib. object and the original. This actually devalues the whole concept of the CC library. :(

I'm having the same problem. The assets are still fine once dragged into the document, but it's just the thumbnail displaying it too small, right? It's functional and all, but it's quite annoying.
A workaround is to place the object into a document (preferably in the app you made it in) as a copy (by right clicking on it in the Libraries window). You will see the edited, most up-to-date version of your asset appearing just as it should in the document. Then, delete the object in your CC library. Now, drag the object back in from the document to save a new version. Theoretically, this MAY cause you to need to relink it in other documents (if you ever placed it as a linked object in other documents instead of a vector copy as I just described), but as long as you name it exactly how it was before, you may not encounter this problem.
