Saving Default Style

Saving a default style for a result type will mean that every time a result type of that name e.g 'Depth' is loaded, TUFLOW Viewer will automatically apply that style.

There are 2 options:

1. Save Colour Ramp --> This will save the particular colour ramp as default. This means the actual min / max values will be adjusted based on the results. This is useful for results such as Bed Elevation or Water Level where the ranges are usually different depending on the model's location
2. Save Colour Map --> This will save the exact values and associated colours used in the styling. This might be useful for results such as Depth or Velocity where a template can be applicable across different models

Right Click the result type >> Save Style As Default >> Colour Ramp
