Change how preset brushes are displayed

Choose a display option from the Brush Preset picker menu  or Brushes palette menu:

  • Text Only to view the brushes as a list.
  • Small or Large Thumbnail to view the brushes as thumbnails.
  • Small or Large List to view the brushes as a list with thumbnails.
  • Stroke Thumbnail to view a sample brush stroke with each brush thumbnail.
    To dynamically preview brush strokes in the Brushes palette, make sure that Brush Preset is selected, and then position the pointer over a brush until the tool tip appears. Move the pointer over different brushes. The preview area at the bottom of the palette will display sample brush strokes.
