By default, a sprite’s pivot point is set to ‘Centre Centre’. When moving it to ‘Centre Left’ or ‘Centre Right’, thumbnail in Content Browser is fine, but when choosing either ‘Top Left’ or ‘Bottom Right’, basically points without ‘Centre’ prefix, thumbnail reflects this, moving it out of view.

As you can see in image above, chequered sprites are ones with corner based pivot points. I use corner based pivots because centre pivots do not align to grid.

Hi MaxDiehard,

This is a known issue that has already been fixed internally (UE-9982). It should be included in 4.7.4 release, which is coming soon. Let us know if you still see this problem after release!
