100% needed - tbh i am quite surprised, coming from Divi, that this isn't a thing in BD.

Mike Temby have you tested the breakdance beta? It’s coming. So this request is obsolete.

robotdance yeah i've played with it. Not impressed with the presets. It's probably the worst implementation of presets amongst the builders i've tried. BD does some things well but not this.
* why get locked out of the elements controls once a preset is selected
* why can't this be extended to a 'default' style for said elements as well
* why does it only include basic styles and not advanced styles and custom css. A preset should include everything you can set.
* why can't i select a preset on an element and then override a specific value.
* further to point one, you should be able to see, on the element, what the preset is defining.
Divi does presets so much better. They should take some inspiration from that.

robotdance ..also i think when i wrote this, i was tired and thought the post was about custom defaults, rather than presets. so both obsolete and unrelated haha.
robotdance
Mike Tembyyes, all these things have I also written to Louis 😉. Default preset, locked, overwrite and so on.
I‘ll request these things in canny as well… so it cannot be lost 🙌

I'd love to see this as well.
I often make little CSS tweaks to various elements, and then use them in multiple places throughout my site. It'd be nice to have one central place to tweak the default styles of an element, and then have them apply every single time I use that element.
One block of CSS, one time, applied everywhere.

Yes! This would be huge. I would love to define all the styles, settings/options for a particular Element, and then every time that element is added from the standard "Add" action in the builder, it takes on the global element styles I already defined. And if you decide you want to tweak the global element styles a bit, every element installed on different pages of your site will update with that same style tweak as well.

It'd be amazing if I can have a client select a element style in this way. And allow us to have styles defined by a class
Eg, 3 card styles,
Dark, Light, Accent

Dan: Unlimited Presets for every Element ;-). And that's the way it is better than only the classes approach, cause JS Settings could also be included - like for Sliders, Tabs and so on.

Similar requests have been made previously and should probably be merged with this request:
Dustin Dauncey
Jane Basom: I think this one is for all elements, buttons was only the example so the last two links aren’t too relevant here. It should still probably be merged with your first link though. This one has more votes funny enough, so maybe could merge the less-voted one with this one, either way as long as it’s cleaned up. :-)
Dustin Dauncey
Bricks does this really well, letting every element be pre-defined in styles. Hopefully BD takes that into consideration, it’d be a huge improvement to quickly building sites.
robotdance
Dustin Dauncey: Absolutely!

Dan
Dustin Dauncey: and more consistent
robotdance
Dustin Dauncey: It would be also nice, if any Element could have unlimited presets.
