Presets

A preset sets every setting of a movement at once. Open it from the preset button (the list icon) at the right of the Movement panel’s header. After you apply one, the menu’s title shows its name.

Apply a Preset

Pick a preset from the menu. With a movement selected, TockPilot rebuilds it once with the preset’s settings and keeps its place. With nothing selected, the preset sets up the next Add Movement. Your time and rate stay as they are.

TockPilot ships eleven, each set where the real ones differ:

Preset	What it is
Regulator	A wall clock with a Graham escapement and a rod-and-bob pendulum
Grandfather Clock	A recoil anchor in a mahogany longcase
Gridiron Regulator	Harrison’s gridiron pendulum in a walnut wall case
Skeleton Clock Under a Dome	Mercury jars, on an ebony base under glass
Turret Clock	The tower clock in its iron frame, aged
Swiss Pocket Watch	Frosted gilt bridges, blued screws, a Roman dial, a gold case
Saxon Pocket Watch	A three-quarter plate in German silver, an Arabic dial, a gold case
Dress Watch	A wristwatch at 21,600 beats, an Arabic dial, a steel case
Automatic	A wristwatch with a rotor, a black baton dial, a steel case
High-Beat Watch	36,000 beats an hour in a glass case
Tourbillon	A wristwatch with a tourbillon, blued screws, a gold case

Save a Preset

Set the movement up the way you like, then pick Save as Preset at the bottom of the menu and give it a name. TockPilot saves the settings the panel shows and lists your preset under its own. A name the shipped presets use is taken; pick another.

Your presets are small files in TockPilot’s user folder, so they stay when you update TockPilot.

Remove a Preset

Click the X beside one of your own presets in the menu. TockPilot deletes it. The shipped presets cannot be removed.
