Presets

Presets in Cygnus let you save and reuse common configurations, saving time when creating new studies with similar parameters.

Types of Presets​

  • Ephemeris Presets -- Save study-level configuration settings including location, zodiac system, coordinate origin, and reference plane. Access via the Presets Menu Button next to the Location dropdown.
  • Body List Presets -- Save celestial body selections for quick reuse across studies. Access by right-clicking on any row in the Bodies list.

Preset Operations​

Both preset types support the same management operations:

  • Create a new preset from current settings
  • Apply a saved preset to the current study
  • Set Default so new studies automatically use the preset
  • Rename a preset
  • Replace a preset's values with current settings
  • Delete a preset that is no longer needed
  • Clear Default to remove the default preset designation
info

Presets are stored at the application level and are shared across all workspaces. Any preset you create is available whenever you use Cygnus.
