The Material Quick Palette

From ZBrush Info

The Materials Quick Palette shows all available materials, including those custom materials that are loaded at startup. To launch the quick palette, click the large Current Material material thumbnail in the Material Palette or on the left shelf. Alternatively, press F6 on the keyboard.

In this menu, the active material (top, 2nd from left) is grayed out to indicate that you can't select it.

If the Preview Material on Mesh button is switched on, placing the cursor over a material thumbnail will show a preview of that material on a 3D Mesh, providing the mesh is in Edit mode.

To choose a material, click its thumbnail.

The Materials Quick Palette provides several other buttons for working with materials.
