While in painting we have to use brushs a lot. How can i go back from my current selected brush to previous selected brush instead of finding the brush again in brush panel. Is that feature avaible?

One way is to was cycle through brush presets with function key via Photoshop scripting. I'm not a painter so I do not do that but a did write some scripts to aide users to do that.  However, I wrote the scripts quite some time ago and Adobe has made many changes  in Photoshop dealing with brushes.  So I have no idea if the scripts will still work.
