How can I control/change the thumbnail that appears under member select for the reuse library (NOT the image that is part of the KRX). As shown in the attached image
Most of time I open the part and save it in the view I want and the thumbnail updates, but that does not work all the time.

Thanks
Luke
 
Some of the parts may have had the preview image set to NOT update when saved. For the items where the image is NOT updating when you save them, open the file and go to...

File -> Properties -> Preview

...and check to see if the 'Creation Time' option was set to 'On Save' or 'On Demand'. If it's set to 'On Demand' either change it to 'On Save' and proceed doing what you've done in the past. Or else leave the setting as is and simply set up the view as you wish it to look and hit the 'Create Preview Now' button just below where these options were displayed. Now save your file and you should be good to go.
