Is there an existing issue for this?

Problem description

When creating a BIM wall or window/door, there is the ability to create the new object based on a preset. The preset could be a document or a global preset (asset like system).
The dropdown has only options for choosing existing presets.
There is no ability to save the current object or state in the task dialog (when creating a new wall) as a new preset.
I also did not find any possibility to create presets for different walls/windows in my current BIM project.

It would be great if you could

  • save an existing object as preset
  • save the state of the task dialog on creation as preset
  • create and manage presets for the entire BIM project (e.g. define wall presets and doors/windows prior to drawing in the document)

If possible, not only for walls, doors, or windows but if possible for stairs, slabs, columns,...
