Add an option for the Layers panel to show tight bound thumbnails for clipping groups
Illustrator 28.4.1 on Mac Ventura 13.5.2
Wasn't there a time when the thumbnail of a layer containing a clipped image was cropped around the clipping mask and not around the whole image? (i.e. not showing the white all around)
Or is there a setting that I missed?
Thanks for your help!

Nope, it never was a thing (I even checked a couple of versions).
Most probably you confuse this with a similar option Photoshop has: Thumbnail Contents > Layer Bounds / Entire Document.I agree this should be consistent with the way Ai handles it.
Previously, rasterizing a clipping group would use the clipped contents bounds, and not the mask (now fixed).
But the symbols still suffer from this, here is a request to get it improved: http://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447/suggestions/43447725Technically not a bug.
I am converting this one to a feature request and adding my vote. Thank you so much for spotting this and making a post!
