#2 closed enhancement (duplicate)

Save/restore default symbology

Description

I would love to have an option in the symbology preferences to "save as default". This would save the symbology info in a .qgl file for instance. Each provider would implement it differently. When adding the layer again later it would apply the default symbology automatically if it is found.

Milestone: Version 1.0 Release

This is an important feature to have in place by the 1.0 release.

this seems the same as #169. Better merge the two?

#169 is a duplicate of this. Paolo says:

It would be very useful to have the possibility of saving layer properties even independently of projects; therefore different users or different projects could share uniform layer colours, transparency etc. GRASS implements a similar mechanism with RGB column in the database (which would be good to be able to reuse in QGIS). This, couples with the possibility of assigning properties to a bunch of layers (like a "catalog") would allow much smoother work.

Ticket #840 which I opened recently also duplicates this. I know this is the first report for this, but Im closing this ticket and managing it further from #840.
