如何在 Android Studio 中查看自定义矢量资源（由 SVG 格式添加）的预览？

Question

I know i can use my own svg as icons by browsing them from the asset studio but it just show the name not the exact icon of the svg, i can't know just by name what that icon is look like, so can i view them while adding them to project like they are showing in below image?

I have many icon on my computer can i add them to that list, so that i can see them visually when i want to add a new vector asset. I tend to think that it can be done because then icons which android asset studio is shows must be stored in a directory from where it pulls when when i open asset stdio, if i can add my svg to that directory then android studio may may also pull them too with default clip arts and they may also show up in asset studio, does anyone know what that directory is, or any other way of doing this.

Note android studio does not give such option via UI

When you add a new vector asset (assuming you've added it in the drawable directory), it gets added in the drawable directory. It is generally saved by the name ic_thatSVGname . So it gets the prefix IC. So please browse in the drawable directory and you will find your vector asset. Then double click on it so that it opens and you can see the preview on right side of the screen. It it doesn't, just click the PREVIEW button which also reside on the right side of the Android Studio. So that means just search for that in drawable directory. And while adding new vector assets, right click on the DRAWABLE DIRECTORY only so that it gets into that directory else it might end up outside it.
