Is there a way to select a texture used in a fill layer stored in the library? Actually I have to remember the name of this texture and find it by memory among every folders of the project collection.

Unfortunately, you're right, you can't select a texture in the asset window from the layer's properties (that could be a nice feature tough). With that being said, you can save the current Fill Layer in your Library as a Material preset.

Right click anywhere in the properties window and Create Material Preset.

Hi Cyril:
The question is that there are no commands or hotkeys or ways to get or select a texture in the Asset Dock through and already assigned texture in the properties, normally a fill layer. Sometimes y use a listo of layers with several textures and theres no way no get what texture is being used through its respective assigned channel of the layer (for example color or difuse) and visualize it in the asset window.

Hi @santiagog30958376,

 

I am unfortunately not entirely sure to get the question, but if you want an easy way to find your assets in the library, you can set some assets as favorites (right click > Add to favorites). This way, they will always be at the top of the library.

 

Don't hesitate to tell me if I missed your point.

 

Best regards,
