Show default settings

This is a simple addition. When I make a million changes to my slicer settings I forget what the default was for the profile and then I have to create a new profile to get back to default settings. My request is to add the default setting at the end of the description when you hover over the field. For example, instead of "Number of solid layers to require at the top of the part" it would be "Number of solid layers to require at the top of the part (default: 3)".

I have a similar request but think it could be accomplished another way..
Whenever I make a change to a profile I see "Origional Prusa i3 (modified)". Give me a button that says basicly forgets my modifications. That way, if I make a modification, I can easily go back if it didn't fix things. OR, as soon as I make a few modifications, force me to save them as a new name.
This gets frustrating after a while and I end up deleting all my profiles and re-adding my printer and Print profiles from stratch.
Along those same lines, when I create a new process, dont remember my last process settings. I cant tell you how many times I have clicked "Prepare to print" and get a few things floating in the air and think "How the heck did it come up with THAT?" only to discover it rememebered some odd layer height of one of my last processes.

Just so you know, you can already do this in the current version without having to go back to the configuration assistant like you described. After you make a change, the profile will be displayed as "Profile name (modified)". At that point, if you select any other profile from the "Select profile" drop down list, it will ask if you want to save those modified changes. Just say No to that prompt and then the modifications will be removed. Then if you switch back to the prior profile, you will have the unmodified settings.

That's great! I'm glad to hear there is a way. That has been a point of frustration for a while.
Thanks!
