I want to create an addon that have some presets to make it settings more easy to edit and remember global properties.
I would like how to make an preset menu to acess global properties and define its initial settings when the addon is installed for first time.
It can simplify and give more fexibility for my addon, I'm still using an enumProp and too much IFs for this method and with presets I belive it can be collapsed in a single block.
This is the update function of my code, as can see it is very long and inflexible. complete version can be found in :https://github.com/jeacom25b/BlenderSolidLightsInToolsTab/blob/master/Solid_Ligths_Protoshader.py
