In Corel Painter, you can find brush variants by searching or browsing the currently selected brush library.
You can quickly search the content of the currently selected brush library to find brushes that match a specific description. You can perform a search by entering one, or a combination of, brush attributes. For example, typing the search terms "pencil real" generates a list of all "Real Pencil" brush variants.
You can also look for brush variants by browsing the brush categories in the Brush library panel. If you hover over a brush variant’s name, you can preview the variant’s brush dab and brush stroke at the bottom of the panel. The Brush library panel also displays the most recently used brushes at the top of the panel so you can quickly access the last brushes that you used.
The Brush library panel lets you choose a brush category (left) and a brush variant (right).
The default Corel Painter brush variants display in the Brush library panel until you open or import a different brush library. In addition, the Brush library panel displays only one brush library at a time. For more information, see "Importing and exporting brush libraries, categories, and variants" on page 311.
If you’re looking for a brush from a previous version of Corel Painter, you can reload the old version’s brush library. For more information, see "Importing and exporting brush libraries, categories, and variants" on page 311.
You can search for brushes that are new in Corel Painter X3 by typing 13 in the Search Brushes text box.
If you previously hid the Search bar, you can show it by clicking Window 
Search.
