Custom Defaults

Default Presets

When we (as coders) submit a node, we decide on sane defaults. Sometimes those defaults are not optimal for you (the user). If you find yourself always tweaking the parameters of a node before using it, then you might want to define custom node defaults. This is done by using Presets mechanism.

1. In Presets panel choose your node
2. Choose preset

or

3. RMB on node and choose Node Presets
4. Choose preset (or set new from current parameters)

How it works:

• You configure the node as you wish
• You go to it's Presets menu (in the N panel, or in the node's context menu, or you can press Shift-P), and select "Save current settings as node preset"
• Enter Default (case sensitive) as the name of the preset.

Now, when you create node of the same type by any usual way (from Shift-A menu, from T panel, from Search menu), this Default preset will be automatically applied. This preset will not be applied when the node is created as part of another (multi-node) preset being imported.

These Default presets are available in the Presets panel under T panel; you can rename them, or remove as well as others.
