We want to create and save such a Group Preset. In this example, we are changing the value for group Left to 59 and the value for group Right to 168. We leave the value for group Middle at 255.
Then, we are changing the Group Preset name to Intro (1) and click Set (2).
The Set Group Preset window will be opened. In this window, you an choose on which Group Preset button you want to store the current slider settings. We are going to store it on Group Preset 1. To store the preset, please click OK

You can see that there are 2 blue buttons now in the Group Preset section. When you click on one of the blue buttons, the sliders will be changed to the stored values within. Such a fade will be executed within the set Fade Time. You can change the Fade Time on the bottom left side of the Group Preset section.
Note: If you do not want to switch between 2 Group Presets with a fade, perform a double-click on the desired Group Preset.
