OnShape is selecting a parts studio view for the icon to show in my documents. How do I do control it to show an assembly model view?

    I have suggested that they should show preview of every tab when hovering the doc on list.

    Currently you can't choose the image, but I suppose it's the last one you have been working with..

    @eric_taylor @3dcad - yes there are stories to both set the default element preview and allow a preview of all elements before opening the document. Go to the feedback tool to submit your enhancement request for how these should work.

    In the meantime - here is a trick ---
    Do something to make your document 'dirty' (a change), switch to the element (tab) that you want shown on your documents page and then close the browser tab containing that document. Wait a few minutes (thumbnail generation is batched) - ta da! :)
