When we upload a filter, it may happen that the number of presets is not the same as the number of variations showed in the library.

If the presets are more than 9, some simply don't appear. This is not a problem because 9 presets are enough for understanding what the filter can do.

If the presets are less than 9, some variations are automatically created.
This can give a false idea of the filter.

First of all because the users that download the filter will find less presets than they may have expected ( for example, my last filter has only one presets. All the other variations will not be available when somebody downloads it ).

Second, because the automatic variations sometimes generate results that have nothing to do with the idea of that filter.

What do you think?

Best practice:

Always create at least 9 presets for your filter. Make these as representative of the filter's capabilities as possible. Activate Seamless Tiling for all presets.

I personally do not like the 'seamless tiling' turned on for the presets. I prefer to see how the filter looks before tiling.

Seamless Tiling is forced for all library renderings, so you might as well activate it yourself. It's the only way to get a 100% exact preview of what your presets will look like on the filter's webpage.
