It would be nice to add sorting of brushes into folders, like for alphas. I make a variety of brushes that I use all the time, and it’s very inconvenient to find the ones I need in a large list.

This wish has often been made, but unfortunately it doesn’t seem to be coming true…
A better tool organizations system seems to remain a dream.
I have to laugh every time I see Razum’s 200 brushes in a video, I have no idea how he keeps track of them.

I support this request! After adding and buying a few brushes it’s gotten a bit out of hand. It really slow you down having to scroll through long lists of brushes. Procreate does a really nice job with their brush organization.
I bought Razum’s set and had to delete like 10 of them just to keep it manageable.

You should be able to create collapsible categories where you could drag and drop the brushes.

I support this request.
I am sure that many users are faced with a large list of tools and constantly scrolling through it in search. It is difficult to maintain attention when navigating through a bunch of icons. Currently, there is no sorting and storing of brushes.
I thought about how to solve this problem.
My suggestions:
- Since new custom brushes are simply saved settings of the basic ones, I see it possible to store them as presets inside the basic brushes. This makes it possible to work with a brush preset by calling a hotkey. It is immediately clear on the basis of which brush the user works.
- They can be stored in subfolders grouped by basic tools inside the tools folder.
- It would be good to have a label by which the program will not be able to load a brush. For example, an underscore before the name. This will allow you to temporarily sort brushes inside the program catalog.
This is how it might look in the program interface

I made almost exactly the same suggestion a long time ago and the answer was no.
I think Stephan knows exactly how he could organize the brush tools - this also applies to other things like materials, alphas, projects, etc…
But we will have to wait until he implements it.
Unfortunately, if you leave it as it is, you will completely lose track of the tools.
I have deleted almost all additional tools.
Since drag & drop now works for the brush tools - I simply drop the brush I need into the tools and then delete the brush again.
It’s cumbersome, but it keeps the tool menu small and clear.

Hi, Holger😀 Not 200 most of them for developer purposes. But yeah the folder option for tools it will be cool! My idea was to add some kind of tabs:

No matter what - the main thing is that you can collapse the subcategories.
