Edit presets as text

Presets can be exported to a plain text file, manually edited, and imported back into the program.

There are special commands for this in the Manage Presets menu:

Write Presets To File - This exports presets as a plain text file. You may manually edit this text in any text editor, edit or rename existing presets, create new presets, remove unneeded ones, and sort presets in a more suitable order. See Presets In Details for more information.

Read Presets From File - This imports presets from a plain text file. It reads and replaces all presets. If you want to edit only one preset, you have to export all presets, edit the one you want, and import the edited file.

To edit the file, open it in Notepad (or your other favorite text editor), make the edits, and save it.

NOTE: If you are using a complex text editor like Word, please be sure to save the file in “plain text”/”.txt” format.

At the beginning of the file, there is an explanation section with commentaries that you may use for reference:
