Default render mode when editing a symbol?

[Bruce Kieffer]

Where is the setting to change the default render mode when editing a symbol, or what do I need to change? I have a few files that default to wireframe and I want shaded.

If I remember correctly,

since we got that setting for view mode when switching between

2D and 3D, I had ideas for improvements, but now I could live with it well.

 

AFAIR it was a few VW versions later when VW started to ignore that

settings in Edit Modes (at least Symbols ?)

But AFAIK there was never an other setting option for Symbol editing.

 

And if I got that correct, that 2D/3D switch definition setting is gone

in VW 2024 (or hidden in another location ?) but it seems to still

works reasonable for me in View Window.

 

And I tried to open a Symbol,

it opened in a 3D View but in Wireframe which is not my preferred setting.

But after switching to Top Plan View and back to 3D View,

it went to Shaded automatically.

If this adapts to all of my (File migrated) Symbols after I enter Edit Mode

in VW 2024, that is OK for me ....

It's goofy behavior, and it defaults to wireframe the next time I edit.
