Panel: Presets¶
The Presets Panel is used to create, recall, and manage presets. Presets are text files stored in the current Blender file. The naming convention is like this: chart_xxxxxx.py.
Presets are imported to the current .blend file’s text data.
Note
Presets save the values for the four (4) Geometry Node Groups:
CSV_ChartArea
CSV_Data
CO_Multi_Object
VO_Multi_Object
Some values are bypassed and not saved by presets. These include:
“Name_Label_String”,
“Value_Main”,
“Longitude_X”,
“Lattitude_Y”,
“Elevation_Z”,
“Name_Label_String”,
“Value_Main_Min”,
“Value_Main_Max”,
“Value_Main_Sum”,
“Instance_Collection”,
“CSV_Coordinates”

Creating and naming a Preset¶
Here a custom spiral chart has been created. After clicking “New Preset” a new Preset is saved with the name “chart_1”. The Preset is then renamed to “The Spiral” and is available in the Dropdown.
Hint
Load another preset then the new preset to test if everything saved correctly.
