Predefined settings are grouped into 4 folders:
- Folders 1, 2 and 3 – folders containing predefined presets supplied with the program.
- U - folder contains user’s presets.
Choose a folder by clicking on icon 1, 2, 3 or U.

  • To create your own preset, load any image, set processing parameters, and then choose Edit -> Save as Preset from the menu. The program will suggest a catalog 'U' - User's presets, but you can also save the preset in any Windows folder. If the preset is saved in folders 1, 2, 3 or U, its miniature will be visible within a few moments.
  • You can adjust the size of the displayed miniatures to fit your monitor. Use the scroll bar or predefined size settings in the toolbar on the left.
  • You can change the name of your presets or delete them by right-clicking on the miniature and choosing an option from the context menu.
  • You can change the order of presets according to creation date, name or modification date with the help of the sorting icon on the toolbar on the left.
