Tool Presets

 
 
 

A tool preset is a tool you save with a customized set of properties. You can then use the tool preset as you would any other tool in a dependency graph. Sharing tool presets among a team is a great way to streamline a project. You can simply email tool presets to anyone involved in a particular project.

The tool presets you create are stored in the ToolPresets folder in the following location: <UserData>\toolPresets. When you create a tool preset, it is appended with the following extension: .txpreset. For example, in the following illustration, three tool presets were created from the Glow tool which reside in the<UserData>\toolPresets\Effects\Glow folder.
