How to show icons in drawable list in android studio

Viewed 1770

During day to day development, many times it is required to check the icons in drawable folder and many icons have similar names, so it is tough to identify icon to use. I have to open icon each time to check it by double click on it.

So my question: Is there any way to show icon in drawable list directly without opening it ? Attaching a screenshot for better visibility.

Yes, I found a solution for this as:

There is a Android Studio and IntelliJ IDEA plugin that replaces default icons with drawables previews inside project view. (Android drawable preview plugin)

It just works as we required in this question. Follow below steps to use it.
