Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and sharing your observations with us. After reviewing the details of the report, we’ve determined that this issue is not a software defect but rather an opportunity to enhance the clarity and usability of the UI. As such, we’ve transitioned this report into a feature request to explore UI improvements that address the concerns raised. Our team will assess this feature request as part of our ongoing roadmap planning and prioritize it alongside other initiatives based on its impact and feasibility.

Steps to reproduce:

Open any Project
In a Scene's Hierarchy create a Terrain Game Object and select it
In the Inspector click the option to "Paint Terrain"
In the Terrain Layers section click the button "Edit Terrain Layers..." and select "Create"
Select any Texture
Search for that Layer in the Project Browser and observe it both in a List View and with Preview

Actual results: In both View Modes an unassigned Icon for an unidentified Asset is used

Expected results: Layer Gear Icon or any other Icon is used as it's an Asset Generated with Unity

Reproducible with versions: 2022.3.66f1, 6000.0.60f1, 6000.2.8f1, 6000.3.0b5, 6000.4.0a2
