3.0 Visual Settings Preset Options Removed?

What happened to the Presets “Save/ Load” feature in the new 3.0 update?

This is critical for multiple views that require different settings as well as having multiple users in the same model.


Hi @j4s0nsm1th

Welcome to our forum.

You can find the visual Presets in the Visual Settings menu by opening the panel on the left as seen here.

Be aware that these presets are now automatically saved on any changes made.

Thank you for your concerns @angelo_marasco , I’ll make sure our developers get your feedback. :thumbup: If there is anything you’d like to see improved about it specifically, could you let me know in detail?

@Rick_Marx - This statement concerns me. Does the following functionality still exist?

  1. Save visual preset settings as “Settings-A.json”

  2. New Session

  3. Load visual preset setting from “Settings-A.json”

  4. Make adjustment to something (Exposure, etc)

  5. Do not save changes (because for example, the adjusted version was horrible looking… lol)

  6. Load visual preset setting from “Settings-A.json” which should not have been updated because we did not save in step 5 to restore exactly the look achieved in step #3 above.

Hi @renderwiz

Yes, as seen in the same article you can still save these settings to a file.

The settings are automatically saved in the project but not in the file, so you can still reload the file as you described to revert this.
