Zbrush - How to apply existing texture to sub tool mesh?

sr3d

I have my tool open in Zbrush.  I want to apply an existing texture I made. How do I do this?

So far I've imported the texture.  I've flipped it's V.  The texture is now sitting in the current texture box on the left side of Zbrush.

From here, I cannot figure out how to simply apply this texture to the current tool I have open.  My mesh has it's UV's laid out already. 

Where is the "APPLY TEXTURE TO CURRENT SUBTOOL" button?

Hi,

Tool > Texture Map > click on the big gray square > pick up your texture

Just so you know (assuming it is the box I'm thinking about), that texture box is actually for the brush properties. So if you have a texture assigned to it then it will just use that image for polypainting, which is probably not the brush behavior you will want to have. You may want to clear that off before you proceed.  

For applying a texture to the actual 3d tool, use the Tool > Texture Map sub-palette like Lorenzo suggested.
