Layers in Presets?

Post by jrmcrae »

I have Aftershot Pro 3. Can you include layers in custom presets?? It looks like you can opt to include layers, but they're not actually created. Glitch or is this not currently available? Tell me it's a glitch...I'm incredulous if it's not a possiblity...

TIA!

its not possible by default with the GUI - but you can copy a normal preset by hand and then change the text in the .xmp or add text concerning the layer - I add examples in the attachment.
You also have to be careful. Do not add layers before you use these sort of presets - because then your layers will be overwritten and lost.

Examples:
Perfect clear (often to stron - on a layer you can reduce to 50% ...)
zText pluging - auto text on 4 layers (main - and tree additional layers)
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.
