Libraries 275
To create a library
1 In a library panel, click the New [Resource type] Library button .
For example, if you want to open a pattern library from the Pattern Libraries
panel, click the New Pattern Library button .
2 In the New Library dialog box, type a name in the Save As box.
A header bar for the new library appears at the bottom of the library panel and its
title appears in the list of available libraries. The new library also contains one
swatch by default.
When you save an item, Corel Painter stores it in the currently selected
library. If this is not where you want it, be sure to select the correct library
before saving the item. You can move items between libraries later, but
switching libraries before saving the resource will spare you that extra step.
To add an existing resource to a library
• From the library panel, drag a resource from one library to the library where you
want to add the resource.
When you create a new resource, such as a brush variant, paper, or weave, it
is automatically saved to the currently selected library. For more information
about creating resources, please refer to the Help chapter that pertains to the
resource.
Over time, with additions and deletions, library file sizes are compounded. In
some cases, you may lose items if you restore a default library. For best results,
save new resources to new libraries, and limit the number of resources in each
library.
To remove a library
1 Click the library panel’s options button , choose Remove [Resource type]
Library.
2 Choose the library that you want to remove from the Library list box.
