# Global Preferences

**Global Preferences** allow us to apply default settings to aspects of **Incari**. These aspects are discussed below:

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Animation Editor" %}

**Playback**

**Loop Mode**

`Loop Mode` determines if an **Animation** should play forward or alternate between playing forward and backward in a **Scene**. It can be set in the following ways:

* `Alternate`: The **Animation** is played forward and backward in each animation cycle.

* `None`: The **Animation** is played forward once in each animation cycle.

* `Repeat`: The **Animation** is played forward in repeated cycles without reversing direction.

**Projects**

**Projects Path**

The default directory on a user's computer where **Incari Projects** are saved.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Logic Editor" %}
![](/files/hb0tPIzEYeApU1BOXuW3)

**Theme**

**Grid Color**

The `Grid Color` of the **Logic Editor** can be set here. The *color* can be set by manually adjusting the **HSB** / **RGBA** values or inserting a **Hex Code**, using their corresponding [**Color Attribute**](/incari-studio/2022.2/objects-and-types/attributes/attribute-types/color-attribute.md).

Additionally, the `Reset color` button sets the `Grid Color` back to its default value.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="User Interface" %}

**Layout**

**Reset layout**

The `Reset Layout` button resets all **Modules** found in **Incari** to their default positions.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Viewport" %}
![](/files/1WXi6kTFK5sVkVZufl7t)

**Theme**

**Bottom and Top Gradient Color**

`Bottom` and `Top Gradient Color` set a *color gradient* that starts at the bottom and top positions of the **Viewport**, respectively. The *color gradient* can be set by manually adjusting the **HSB** / **RGBA** values or inserting a **Hex Code**, using their corresponding [**Color Attribute**](/incari-studio/2022.2/objects-and-types/attributes/attribute-types/color-attribute.md).

**Grid Color**

`Grid Color` sets the color of the *grid* found in the **Viewport**. The *color* is set in the same way as the `Bottom` and `Top Gradient Color` **Attributes**.

`2D Background color` sets the background color for **2D Scenes**.

`Reset colors` sets the `Bottom` and `Top Gradient Color` as well as the `Grid Color` of the **Viewport** back to their default *colors*.
