  1. Resolution Note (fix version 2021.2):

    So this is change in behavior!
    When user changes color of the Material - that is in-memory change and it is not written to disc immediately. To write changes to disc user have to press menu File->Save Project (was always like that).
    Previously to get an updated preview it was enough to "Reimport" the asset, but that was a bug. The new behavior is that user changes the Material, then press menu File->Save Project and at this point gets updated preview for the Prefab using that Material.
