 - **Image Trace, Preview:** the Image Trace panel's Preview checkbox, before Trace, is on by default, and a setting change traces the selected Image Trace object again at once. Off, changes wait in the panel until Trace applies them as one undo step, or until Preview is turned on again. Changes stay with the object they were made for while another object is selected. When Preview is turned on with that object not selected, the object is traced with its changes when it is selected again. Preview is kept with the UI preferences, and Reset to Default leaves it. The `imageTrace.preview` command turns it on or off.
 - **Image Trace small contours:** closed fits too small to form an editable subpath retain their positioned outline, including holes. Source-generated island, hole/winding and stepped-region regressions cover Corners and Noise; defaults, parity scores and estimates are unchanged.
 - **Image Trace, custom presets:** Manage Presets next to the Image Trace panel's Preset dropdown saves the panel's settings as a new preset under a name (Save as New Preset…) and renames or deletes the saved preset shown; built-in presets don't change. Saved presets are kept with the preferences and follow the built-in ones in the panel, Control bar and Properties preset lists. `imageTrace.presets.save` and `imageTrace.presets.delete` save, rename and delete them, `imageTrace.presets` lists them, and `imageTrace.make {preset}` traces with one by name.
+- **Image Trace, preset buttons:** six buttons above the Image Trace panel's Preset dropdown choose a preset as the dropdown does, for the options the [help page](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/manage-objects/traces-mockups-symbols/image-trace-panel-options.html) lists before Preset. The presets each button chooses are VectorCraft's own: Auto Color chooses Auto Color, High Color chooses High Fidelity Photo, Low Color chooses Low Fidelity Photo, Grayscale chooses Shades of Gray, Black and White chooses Black and White Logo, and Outline chooses Outline. With Preview on, a click traces the selected Image Trace object again as one undo step; with nothing traced selected, it changes the panel's settings only. The button of the panel's preset shows as selected.
 - **Create Strokes baseline (2026-10-17, measured):** the ignored centre-lines class covers 23 exact code-drawn scenes in aa and hard variants, including junctions, crossings, fills meeting strokes and varying widths. [Baseline and metric definitions](image-trace-quality.md#centre-lines). Topology is recovered from emitted geometry; width-profile metrics remain unavailable. No behaviour change or score increase.
 - **Image Trace, collapsed loops keep few segments:** a loop whose fit collapses to one cubic keeps the fewest segments that hold its area and course, so a higher Paths gives no fewer segments; a code-drawn Paths sweep in `crates/trace` (see [quality notes](image-trace-quality.md#collapsed-loops-keep-few-segments)).
 - **Image Trace, stacked layers only under their own areas:** with Method Overlapping, a layer reaches under the colors above it only within the connected areas that hold its own color, so a shape that sits apart from a color is no longer written again, at the same bounds, in that color, and the edge of that color's layer no longer shows through that shape's anti-aliased rim. *Measured* by `crates/trace/tests/quality` on each preset's own inputs: High Fidelity Photo 121 paths to 69.6 with ΔE 1.74 to 1.72, Low Fidelity Photo 37.1 paths to 26.1. Code-drawn disc, square and line tests in `crates/trace`.
