Hi,

Is there a way to drag brushes (or anything) to reorder them in my library? It's set to custom order now but I can't figure out how to move anything.

Thanks!

PS 23.2.2, iMac

Are the elements grouped? 

In groups I can move library elements in the CC app.

Hi there,

 

Thanks for reaching out; we're here to help. Please keep photoshop up to date to get the best features.

To organize your brushes in Photoshop.

If you want to save time and find your desired brush quickly, it’s important to save them into groups using the Preset Manager.

Now let’s begin – firstly, go into Window > Brush Presets and turn on the brush preset panel:

Once the brush preset panel is on, click on the “Preset Manager” button down at the bottom of the panel:

Open the preset manager, then hold down the Ctrl key and left-click on the brushes you would like to group:

Once you finish the selection, click on “Save Set."

Choose a folder and name your brushes to save with, and press “Save.”

That’s it! Next time you want to use these brushes, you can use the “Replace Brushes” feature on the brush panel or can drag and drop as well.

This method will be convenient if you have several brush sets with the same theme, such as cloud, smoke, or fire brushes. You can just group brushes with the same theme into a single preset. Much easier to locate.

 

Let us know if this helps.

 

Regards,
