I never really had use for those specific presets.
So just limiting it to custom templates would be fine by me.

Aside from really really deprecated formats like PAL - I've never used any of them. Instead I have a dozen of my very own templates. I think a cleanup is due.

So you don't use the examples but you do use the feature, is it correct ?

Yes, I use templates all the time, but none of those which were installed by TVP.

Same here. I use my own all the time but never the presets.

Thanks for your feedbacks ! :mrgreen:
I was about to remove the feature. But I understand that it is being used, so I will let it as is.

Thank you for keeping it . I also use this feature to load my own custom templates. I think the predefined templates give examples to new users of how this feature can be used, so unless there is some pressing need to remove them I would say just leave it as it is now.

Maybe it could be an idea to update the presets. I don't know how many users still use PAL

Hm, I think this should be kept, just for the odd chance somebody needs to fake a TV ad from the 70's for some movie ...

Maybe a better solution would be to have a "customize presets" panel where you can un-check whatever you want, so the presets are still there but only the ones you actually use show up.

You can always customize your presets by editing data/pagesize.conf. In my opinion, it would be overkill to add an editor into TVPaint just for that.
