A story saves basemap settings plus Home and up to 12 quick-slot presets (P1–P12). Compose needs at least 3 of those slots filled (plus Home). Unused P-slots are omitted from the bundle. Apply bundle points Home and slots at those preset ids (already in your library), applies basemap settings, and shows only the quick slots in that story—no empty P buttons after the last one.

In Story Manager, pick Set active on a story. Here you list scenes (saved map views), set Home, assign P1–P12, and Save map. Storage is database when you are signed in with Postgres, or files on this computer in file mode—the steps are the same.
