Numeric Table Presets

A numeric table preset is a saved set of values you can reload into a numeric table with a couple of clicks. The same preset commands work on all three of Aquila's numeric tables:

• The Aspects table, which holds cycle angles.
• The Hotspot Degrees table, which holds fixed zodiac longitudes.
• The Arcs table, which holds arc values.

Each kind of table keeps its own presets. There is no preset button; you reach every preset command by right-clicking inside the table, below the column header. The menu opens whether or not the table already contains rows, and its Presets entry lists your saved presets.

To load a saved set of values into the table:

1. Right-click in the numeric table below the column header to open the context menu.
2. Click Presets to open the submenu of saved presets.

The table fills with the preset's values.
