Hi Yufeng,
The "Properties" panel can show you which settings got changed with the preset.
The "pretty" preset indeed sets "cartoon_side_chain_helper" to "off" for the
object. The easiest way to clear this setting is to use the "unset_deep"
command.
unset_deep cartoon_side_chain_helper
set cartoon_side_chain_helper

Cheers,
Thomas
