Smart presets are a series of pre-made scripts for performing common Motion Graphics tasks. You can find them in the
Content Browser.
To use a Smart Preset
- Open the Content Browser.
- Go to the Smart Presets folder.
- Middle-drag a preset into your scene.
Depending on the selected preset, Maya may present additional instructions for you to perform. Many will open an additional dialogue window where you can middle-drag the nodes that you want affected by the preset.
