Chart Aspects Presets

Aspects presets are named sets of aspect angles you can save and reapply, so you do not have to retype every angle. Presets are saved and available across all chart windows.

As with bodies presets, there is no preset button. The presets menu opens from the Aspects grid's right-click menu. New Preset and Clear Default sit on the top level of that menu, while Apply and each preset's own options (Set Default, Rename, Replace, and Delete) are reached through the Presets submenu.

To apply a saved preset:

  1. Right-click a row in the Aspects grid to open the context menu.
