Local Library Tab

The Local Library tab, found in the bottom dock panel, provides access to all user-based generated presets. These presets are reusable and can be loaded in the current scene or any other scene by dropping them into the viewport.

The presets reside in the following location on your machine: C:\Users\<username>\Documents\Chaos Envision

Currently, the Local Library works only with Scatter presets.

All saved presets are listed in the Local Library. You can delete a preset by right-clicking on it and selecting Delete.

Note that the preset is deleted not only from the list in the Local Library but also from the local folder: ...\Documents\Chaos Envision

The delete action cannot be undone.

To save a preset:

• Select the Scatter object you want to use as a preset from the Objects tab. This displays its parameters in the Details tab.
  
  
• In the Details tab, give a name to the Scatter preset and click to save it.
  
  
• The preset is now available in the Local Library tab () in the bottom dock panel.
