set_defaults() is a great helper function with simple default values. However, if your graphics have a lot more complicated default settings, you should use each set default methods individually for code readability.
For example, to set series default, you can use set_series_default() function. Series default are the default options that will be applied to all series such as type of renderer, renderer options, label, color, shadow etc.
