# Exporting/Importing Presets & Materials

PANORA|make allows for exporting presets of materials and masks.

Just click on the "Export" button on the Material or Mask tab and the **Backup Preset** window will pop up.

Just like the New Instance window, you'll have to type the path and name of your preset.

Once you're done, click Create and that's it, your preset is made !

By default its name starts with PMP to allow you to differentiate it from other material instances.

### Importing Materials / Masks

On the bottom of the Interface, you'll find a **Import tab** with 3 options (or just 1 if you're on the Mask/Grass tab.)

When clicked, the Material selector will appear. It will contain only materials of the type wanted

(so only Megascans, MSSs, or Presets.)

For the presets, the window shows you what is contained in the preset, and you can restore masks and materials depending on the Sub-Layer your are on. \
(You can't restore a mask on a correction layer, or base layer.)

To **select what to restore**, check what you want below the search bar.&#x20;

Clicking on the folder icon brings you to the file in the content browser/drawer.
