Creative Cloud asset previews appear with white background instead of transparency now

I'm finding that new items added to the Adobe Libraries do not appear with transparency in the preview. See screenshot attached—especially the third test item, which is supposed to be a white circle. I used to be able to be fix these by opening the library asset, making a slight change and resaving it. It would then show with a transparent background. Now, they only show with white no matter what we do. 

Anyone have a fix for this? It's not just a setting or anything, it worked before and now it doesn't. I suspect however the previews are generated was changed or something along those lines. This is super inconveinient.

I realize that when you place the library item it will still be transparent, but we need to be able to preview white graphics. It's too cumbersome to have to read all the names of assets to figure out what they're supposed to be if you have many in a library.

 

I've also attached the version of AI I am creating graphics in and the version of CC desktop app I have.

No. The white background shows in the preview in PS, AI, INDD and in the actual library in the cloud desktop app. The only place it does show the transparency of new items is in the web view of the libraries.

It's confusing because we have other assets in the library that appear with the transparent background that were created in teh past, but anything new we create will not appear with a transparent background, it just gets stuck with white background.

Has a resolution/fix been done for this yet? I've seen community strings going back awhile that have the same issue. Adobe CC Library thumbnails for white graphics on a transparent background render on a white background, making it impossible to know what the graphic looks like without opening it in the native app. This makes the Library useless for easy selection and placement of these images.

Everything is functioning well for me on Windows. Below are the details for CC Desktop. Currently, I am accessing Libraries in Photoshop version 25.7.0.

My CC versions are the same as yours. I'm not sure the thumbnail issue is being fully understood. For example, I don't see any all-white images in your screenshot of your library. This is what I see and what others are experiencing.

These are white vector images so the background is transparent. "Show transparency grid" is checked.

I've been having this same issue for a few months now.

 

Assets I've uploaded to the CC Libraries prior to this seem to have retained the transparent background in the thumbnails, however new assets added appear as white boxes like your screenshot. 

 

Adobe, please fix.

As a long-time Adobe Library apologist, this extremely frustrating update/bug is driving me absolutely bonkers and I can't believe it has yet to be fixed. Ugh.
