# Shed Presets: start every new shed with your defaults

## Start from one of your company’s saved shed designs, then adjust it to suit your customer.

Short answer: **a preset is a saved shed.** Start a new shed from one and your usual shed type, size and colours are already in place. Each company has its own presets, and your company admin sets them up in **Settings**, then **Shed Presets**. Your 3D Online Designer starts from the same presets.

**Save your current shed first if you want to keep it.** Then start the new one from a preset.

**Start a shed from a preset**

1. Open your draft in the Shed Designer
2. Click **More**, then **New Shed**
3. Open a folder and click a preset
4. Change the size and options to suit your customer, then click **Save Shed**

### Start a shed from a preset

|  | Step |
| --- | --- |
| 1 | In the Shed Designer, click **More**, then **New Shed** (1) |
| 2 | Your company's presets open. Type part of a name in **Search Presets** (1), or click a folder (2) to open it |
| 3 | Click a preset to load it |
| 4 | Change the shed to suit your customer, then click **Save Shed** |

If you see no presets, ask your company admin to add one.

### Set up presets (company admin)

Ask your company admin to set up or change presets. If you don't see **Settings** or **Shed Presets**, check with them before continuing.

|  | Step |
| --- | --- |
| 1 | Open **Settings**, then **Shed Presets** (1). Your presets open in a new tab |
| 2 | To add a preset, set up the shed, then click the **New** card (1). It saves the shed on screen as a preset. Give it a **Preset Name** and a **Shed Description**, then save. **Auto Generate Description** can write the description for you |
| 3 | To change a preset, click the **⋮** on its card (2). **Edit** opens **Open in Editor** to change the shed, or **Name & Description** to rename it |
| 4 | **Folder** moves the preset into a folder, or back out with **Move to Root**. **New Folder** makes a folder |
| 5 | **Duplicate** copies a preset. **Delete** asks you to confirm with **Confirm Delete** |
| 6 | To change the order, click **Reorder Presets** (3), drag the presets into place, then click **Confirm Preset Order** |
