saving multiple fx chains as single preset


Using the fx bin is it possible to save multiple fx-chains as a single preset? Maybe a nested fx-chain would be a better term.
Currently when I convert an fx-chain made up of mutiple chain presets they reopen & get extracted into single instances.
Am I overlooking something when converting - any suggestions?

Thanks

    You can load multiple fx chains in the fx bin and convert the bin to a new fx chain... All the plugs from the multiple chains will now be included into 1 chain that you can save... 

    But not nested...

    Thanks David,
    That's my point. They all get extracted into separate instances instead of as individual chains.

    I guess there isn't any way to save nested fx-chains.

    A workround might be to save the track as a track template. Depends on how you work though as to whether that'd be successful or not.

    Making a track template is not quite what I had in mind but a good suggestion. 
    I now convert/ save separate fx-chains then import them one by one, it done quickly but again it's the save/ import/ extraction that's self defeating. A nested feature would be a handy feature for quickly importing more complex chains, then extracting then swapping out certain vst blocks or sets based on function, types or makers.
