Preset Libraries
Preset Libraries contain user created data and persist between sessions. They are integrated into the Color Picker, Gradient Editor and Curve Editors.
- A preset is e.g a color, gradient or an animation curve that is saved by the user.
- A preset library is a collection of presets saved into one file.
- Preset libraries contain personal data or project data. They can be saved either in the user preferences folder or in a ‘Editor’ folder in the Assets folder. Project preset libraries can then be added to revision control for easy sharing between users on a project and added to Asset Store packages.
