Saving tool presets to CC libraries

[minak15279023]

Hi, I have some brushes as imported as tool presets in Photoshop. They are the famous Kyle's brushes. I want to create a CC library with those assets so I could use those brushes in Adobe Sketch. You can see that they created a library with some of his assets: https://shared-assets.adobe.com/link/4acf5754-38e7-4fbe-65cf-a451840e9598?scid=social_20161027_67293...​ I would like to be able to create a library with some of his other brushes that I bought and would like to use using Adobe Sketch because I like drawing on my iPad compared to my laptop. This link talks about uploading pictures, etc to CC libraries, but has nothing about brushes: Manage assets with Creative Cloud Libraries.

Please help me

Sahil, the article you posted does not address CC libraries.

Hi minak15279023

I found a workaround. Seems Sketch will only work with Brush Presets and Kyle Brushes are actually Tool Presets.

1. Open Brush Presets palette.

2. Select Kyle Brush from Tool Preset list.

3. From Brush Preset palette, hit New Brush Preset button (btm right, next to trash can) or select from palette drop-down menu.

4. Name the brush (I named same as Kyle Brush name for easy reference later)

5. After New Brush is saved, select the Brush Preset from the list and drag the brush into a CC library.

6. Then follow these steps to add the brush to Sketch:   Photoshop Help | Adobe Photoshop Sketch FAQ
   

You can add Photoshop brushes to Creative Cloud Libraries or create new brushes using the Adobe Capture CC mobile app. These brushes can be used in Adobe Photoshop Sketch.

1. Long press any brush in the toolbar to launch the list of brushes available in Sketch.
2. Select My Library from the menu options to view the list of custom brushes you created and saved to your Creative Cloud libraries.
3. Tap Change Library to select a different Creative Cloud library.
4. Once you've located the brush you want to use, tap it to place it on your toolbar.

Photoshop brushes in Sketch are compatible with the following devices: iPhone 5s, iPhone SE, iPhone 6/6 Plus, iPhone 6s/6s Plus, iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, iPad Air, iPad Air 2, iPad mini 2, iPad mini 3, iPad mini 4, and iPad Pro.

I also defined a brush preset using stroked shapes side-by-side like pages in spread layout so I could easily add format templates to my Sketch projects. Works great except you can't move once in Sketch app. It really needs a Select/Marquee function!!!

Hope that helps,

Daniel
