# Creating the preset

Each button can contain several presets.

**Custom Buttons** plug-in allows you to create presets with the following types: Properties of Objects, Tags, Materials, Layers, Render Settings parameters, Document parameters, Viewport parameters, Cinema 4D preferences. As well as presets of objects, tags, materials, layers, render settings (separately multi-pass settings and render effects).

Drag the selected object or parameter into the plug-in window.

If you want to create a new preset based on dropped object or parameter just drop it on to empty space of the window. If you want add object or parameter to existing preset, drop it under preset header, to add to a list objects or parameters.

By default after dropping object or parameter on to the preset list window new preset appears with a name that describes shortly its properties. To change default preset name you can open plug-in window menu **Edit >** **Preferences.**

![Preset types](/files/-LdDGXCPNDzSDU9HvS9n)

Now you can define new default preset name using this tokens:

**$obj** — as object name, **$group** — parameter group name, **$param** — parameter name, **$value** — parameter value. \*\*\*\*

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Impotant note. Creating object, material, tag, render settings preset.**

Make sure all objects which you want save as preset are still in the scene before your button will be saved! If you try to delete the object, *entry will disappear from the preset list.*
{% endhint %}

After specifying all the data in the drop zone, a new group will appear with the object. Thus, you can add an unlimited number of groups, and groups can be filled with an unlimited number of objects or parameters.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://mikeudintools.gitbook.io/help/custom-buttons/creating-the-preset.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
