Brush/Gradient/Swatch sets vs singles?
#4
Quote:Do these resource managers (or GIMP) group resources into sets. Even if/when I can get them campatible, it is the case that the are hangled by GIMP are a single item each, or as a group of patterns gradients, whatever?

It is an uncomplicated plugin, takes a folder from something_alt and copies to the Gimp something folder. It is up to you to fill the something_alt folder with sub-folders of various categories, say for brushes - stars - plants - snowflakes - whatever you want. 

You do not actually need a resources manager for that, make your own permanent sub folders in the Gimp User Profile.

In a regular Gimp and I am not sure this works in the Mac Gimp version, assets can be tagged. Using the resource manager that is by folder name. My OSX VM is back in the box, this is linux. I can thin available brushes down from a monster list to 'managable' by specifying the tag. This in my regular linux Gimp. I loaded some extra brushes, then selected a set by its tag.

   

see: https://docs.gimp.org/2.10/en/gimp-tagging.html

...But with your monster number of brushes etc it will be a chore.
