I was wondering if the asset library thumbnails could be downloaded with the program. I dont have the fastest internet and I have to wait for them to download every time I open the window. I get why the actual models are not downloaded but it seems the thumbnails could be. That way you can quickly scan all the objects and once you select the one you want it goes to the internet and gets the file.
Asset Library Thumbnails

I have to wait for them to download every time I open the window.
If you let ALL the metadata load into the Asset Library for ALL the assets in one work session, then you should find that subsequent opening of the Asset Library will result in all asset thumbnails loading pretty much instantly. There may still be a short delay whilst the metadata is validated, but you should no longer have to wait for ages for the thumbnails to load.

(5-6 seconds is not 'ages', but neither is it 'pretty much instantly')

dvsone1440, Gadget - the developers are aware of this issue and it is being looked at. All I can do for the time being is to up-vote the related story in our developer agenda regarding and offline Asset Library, as currently that is the considered solution, although it may not end up being the actual solution implemented.

Thanks for the upvote. Its not a huge issue but one that would be nice if it was faster. I have done a bit of a workaround with an skp file with all my favorites already placed in it and I just copy from one file to the next.

dvsone1440 - Yes, that is a workaround worth remembering to use if the Asset Library is slow to load. Thanks for mentioning it.

If anyone wants skp models with all the assets in them.. here you go. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/js4…XOvTR2rXj61dY76NI-2a?dl=0

Just checking to see if downloading thumbnails (not models) was ever implemented?
