Hello! May i ask you? Why the layer icon for a vector image sometimes is a thumbnail (miniature) of the image itself, but sometimes it is a bezier curve?
Many thanks in advance

Hi, tank666, thank you for your answer! Can you please also tell how Figma recognizes if an icon is complex or not? At what point a miniature become a standart Bezier curve icon?

Unfortunately, I don’t know such details. If I’m not mistaken, I once saw an article by an engineer from Figma who talked about his work, including the vector icon in the layers panel. But I can’t find this article.
