Drawing presets let you save a drawing’s full configuration under a name and reuse it anywhere. Set up your Fibonacci levels once — ratios, colors, fills, line style, extensions — save it as a preset, and every device signed into your Skylit account can apply it with one click.
Presets exist for two families of tools:
| Preset type | Tools covered | What gets saved |
|---|
| Fibonacci | Fib retracement | Level ratios, per-level colors and visibility, fills and fill opacity, line width and style, extensions, trend line, label options, log scale, reverse |
| Line style | Trendline, rectangle, arrow, horizontal line, horizontal ray, vertical line, brush | Color, line width, line style, opacity |
Where to find presets
Select any drawing on the chart and its style toolbar appears.
- Fibonacci drawing selected — the Fibonacci button on the toolbar shows the active preset’s name next to the icon. Click it to open the Fibonacci panel; the preset controls sit at the top, above the level editor.
- Line-style drawing selected — the Line style button works the same way: it carries the active preset’s name and opens a compact preset panel.
Presets are saved to your Skylit account — they belong to you, not to any single chart or layout, and follow you across every device you sign into.
The preset controls
| Control | What it does |
|---|
| Preset dropdown | Applies the chosen preset to the selected drawing and makes it your active preset. Choose Built-in defaults to reset the drawing to the stock configuration. |
| Save as… | Saves the selected drawing’s current configuration as a new named preset and makes it active. |
| Update | Overwrites the active preset with the drawing’s current configuration. Enabled only when the drawing actually differs from the preset. |
| Star | Marks the preset as the default for new drawings. Click again to unstar. |
| Delete | Removes the preset from your account. |
The unsaved-changes dot
When your selected drawing drifts from its preset — a level ratio edited, a different line width, an extension toggled — a dot appears next to the preset name on the toolbar button, and Update lights up in the panel.
- Dot visible — the drawing no longer matches the preset. Click Update to save the changes into the preset, or re-apply the preset from the dropdown to discard them.
- No dot, Update disabled — the drawing matches the preset exactly. Nothing to save.
Update’s disabled state doubles as a saved indicator: if you can’t click it, your preset already reflects what’s on the chart.
Defaults for new drawings
Every new drawing starts from the first match in this order:
- Active preset — whatever is currently selected in the preset dropdown.
- Starred preset — your starred default, used whenever no preset is active.
- Built-in defaults — the stock configuration.
Star the preset you want as your house style, and new Fibonacci or line drawings come out styled without any setup — even after choosing Built-in defaults for a one-off drawing.
Applying a preset
Applying a preset makes the selected drawing match it exactly — every setting the preset covers is restored, including settings you changed since. Right after applying, the drawing is in sync with the preset and Update is disabled.
Applying a preset restyles the selected drawing only. Drawings already on your charts keep their own configuration — select one and re-apply the preset if you want it updated too.
A note on Fibonacci colors
Fibonacci drawings color each level individually — those per-level colors live in the preset. The general drawing color swatch does not apply to Fibonacci drawings, which is why the color picker is not shown on the toolbar while a Fibonacci drawing is selected. For line-style presets, color is part of the preset.
Sync and limits
- Presets sync across all devices signed into the same Skylit account. A preset saved on desktop is available on mobile immediately.
- If the same account edits presets on two devices at once, the most recent save wins.
- Accounts can store up to 50 presets across both preset types.
