Q: How do I make a project preset?

A: If you just need project settings, you can make a project settings preset from the three dots menu in Project Settings>Master Settings. These can persist across all projects in a database/library.

If you need a project with a set bin structure, you can make a "template" project and then just File>Save As... when you need a new project from that template.

Q: How do I save a transition preset?

A: Get your transition settings just right, then right-click on it in the timeline and select "Create Transition Preset." These can persist across all projects in a database/library.

Custom Fusion transitions can be saved as Macros in certain paths (coming soon).

Q: How do I save a color grading preset?

A: You can save a "still" of a certain grade in a "gallery" to use across a project, or in a special type of gallery called a "powergrade gallery" to use across a database. Regular galleries persist across all timelines in a project, and PowerGrades persist across all projects in a database/library.
