## Map layers
By default the map shows the world’s political situation, but it’s not the only available preset. Open the first tab of the menu – _Layers_ – to change the preset. _Preset_ is a set of layers to be toggled on. There are number of presets available by default: political, cultural, religions, provinces and biomes map, heightmap, places of interest and the pure landmass view. You can either select one of the presets or use buttons below to display or hide a particular label.

Check out [the Hotkeys](https://github.com/Azgaar/Fantasy-Map-Generator/wiki/Hotkeys) wiki-page to get a full list of shortcuts. Click on the plus button next to the presets list to save the current layers as a custom preset. On Generator reload the map preset will be defaulted to the the previously selected one.

The same approach is used for styling all map elements. For example if you want to change the color of state borders, select _Borders_ element, then border group (type) and click on the color box to set a new color. Here you can also change border stroke width, its style and apply a visual filter. Different map elements have different styling controls. To restore the default style to all elements click on the counter-clockwise arrow next to the elements list.
