It's common, especially in more extensive asset libraries, to have various organizational patterns and custom-generated previews for the assets. Sometimes they're located in the same folder, sometimes, the previews are saved in subfolders, and different naming conventions are often used.

While it's most recommended to maintain a consistent library organization for obvious reasons, the Auto-assign Previews tool can work with as many matching patterns as needed. To use a new pattern, just select "New pattern" from the dropdown and add a new pair of an asset and custom preview.

The new pattern will be automatically added to the list of existing patterns once you click on the "Process" button and will be available in the "Existing pattern" list the next time you open the Auto-assign Previews. Use the "Delete" button to remove matching patterns that are no longer needed.
