Feature Request: Save/load color, transparency and font settings as presets #102

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It may be annoying to manually change between settings if a user (such as myself) has more than one wallpaper that they might use, each one with different corresponding font, transparency and color settings.

Describe the solution you'd like One possible solution to this would be to add color, transparency, font and other related settings as additional data to the same preset files that are created when you save an Portal arrangement, or "layout" as it's referred to in the app.

Describe alternatives you've considered These visual customization settings could also exist separately, in their own preset files. Doing it this way may be a bit less convoluted for the user, allowing the visual settings created in one layout to be easily applied to another without having to manually re-create them.

Additional context Quick example of what I mean - 2 different customization settings for 2 different wallpapers. image image

What i'm thinking is having "Settings Profiles" which will save the globally set settings. Which can be set as required.

Then also adding the ability to assign a settings profile to a layout, so when that layout is assigned, the corresponding Settings Profile will be assigned. Any Portals with overridden settings will remain with their overridden setting.
