Note: One simple way to choose a small set of your own preferred LFKs is to select 'None' from the presets so that none of the LFKs are selected. Thereafter, tick the LFKs you need alone (as seen in the screenshot below). Then, you can save it to any of the 5 sets – 'My Set 1' to 'My Set 5' – so that you can easily select one of them later on (from the presets).
