 ====== Preset Tutorial ======
+FreeStyler has a preset function that can be helpful during sequence creation.\\
+The benefit of using Presets are that more settings can be stored for one fixture and then in a simple way loaded into the sequence again.\\
+\\
+There are two types of preset that can be applied to the fixtures in a sequence.\\
+A fixture preset that are minded on the individual fixture and a global that are minded on a set of fixtures.\\
+\\
+**Global Preset.**\\
+Open “Sequence editor” and open “Presets” See eventually here [[create_sequence:preset|]].\\
+Select a number of fixture and apply the wanted settings to the fixtures.\\
+This can be gobos, positions, colors and so on.\\
+\\
+Here it is the color of two fixtures. \\
+\\
 {{:tutorial:complete_stage:preset:small_stage_global_preset.gif|}}\\
+The moving head is set with a gobo wheel.\\
 {{:tutorial:complete_stage:preset:color_oby_red.gif|}}\\
-{{:tutorial:complete_stage:preset:color_kam.gif|}}\\
+And the KAM Bar is set with the full color panel to get the right shade.\\
+{{:tutorial:complete_stage:preset:color_kam.gif|}}\\
+\\
+An operation that if it had to be preformed many times will take relative long time.\\
+\\
+And save the Preset as no 1 and give it a name. Here Color_Pink.\\
+See the image above.\\
+\\
+\\
+**Use the Global Preset.**\\
+Select the fixtures that are wanted in the sequence.\\
+Open the Preset panel and select the “Preset”.\\
+Press “Apply to sel. Fixtures”\\
+And save the Sequence.\\
+\\
+If more fixtures than used in the Preset are selected then only the Preset stored ones will be affected by the Preset.\\
+\\
 {{:tutorial:complete_stage:preset:small_stage_global_preset_used.gif|}}\\
+\\
+Aditional if only a few of the Preset fixture are selected then only the selected ones will be affected by the Preset.\\
+\\
+**Edit the Global Preset.**\\
+Select the Preset, Right click and select “Edit Preset”\\
+Make the change and save the Preset.\\
+Here the color for the Moving head is changed to yellow.\\
+\\
+Now playback the sequence without editing it.\\
+On the image bellow the sequence editor is used to single-step the Sequence.\\
+As the image shows then the color has changed just by editing the preset, not the sequence.\\
+\\
 {{:tutorial:complete_stage:preset:small_stage_global_preset_1.gif|}}\\
+\\
+If a fixture has to be removed from the Preset then edit preset as described above.\\
+Select the fixture that are to be removed and right click.\\
+\\
 {{:tutorial:complete_stage:preset:preset_remove_fixture_drop_downmenu.gif|}}\\
+Select “Remove fixture from sequence - preset” and the fixture is removed from the preset.\\
+\\
+\\
+**Fixture Preset**\\
+\\
+Fixture Preset is a bit the same with defining settings.\\
+The difference is that here only one Fixture is selected.\\
+\\
+A fixture preset in contrary to a Global Preset be applied to multiple fixtures though only one is used during the creation of the preset.\\
+\\
+Here a red “Oby_Color_Red” preset are created.\\
+\\
 {{:tutorial:complete_stage:preset:sequence_preset_01.gif|}}\\
+\\
+Applied to multiple fixtures.\\
+\\
 {{:tutorial:complete_stage:preset:sequence_preset_red_star.gif|}}\\
+\\
+The Preset can be edit like above and without editing the sequences where the preset are used then the changes from the preset are applied direct.\\
+\\
+\\
+The Preset values can be removed from sequences.\\
+This is done by opening the sequence and then selecting fixture from which the Preset Values are to be removed.\\
+Then right click on the fixture and select “Remove presetsvalues”\\
+This has to be repeated for all steps in the sequence.\\
+\\
 {{:tutorial:complete_stage:preset:preset_remove_fixture_drop_downmenu.gif|}}\\
+\\
+There will be no direct visible changes to see on the sequence when it is played back.\\
+If the preset is changed then the change doesn’t affect the fixture in the sequence where “Remove presetvalues” has been used.\\
