A better asset preview camera angle

Would be nice to have the preview with a better view. Why not facing equally positive XYZ ? It's actually a back view. Capture d’écran 2025-06-06 222312.jpg

So... you want the preview to be backwards, instead of - you don't model backwards?

Or am I missing something?

no, the preview is actually backward, because the face of an object should look forward +Y. (like the top of an object is toward +Z). So the preview should look like what is in the scene view in the capture. (this model is not the best example but the hole in the cube is the face)
