Change a viewport's layer option

[Jim Smith]

Short of making a new Viewport how does one Change a viewport's layer option? 

 

PS,

I know that one may change this temporarily, but I want to make the change permanently

What do you mean Jim when you say Layer Option?

 

[Jim Smith]

One has a choice of Layer Options such as Grey Others or Show, Snap, Modify  etc. It seems that if one establishes a Viewport with, for example, Show Others as the Layer Option Choice. As far as I can tell, One may either: 1) Override this temporarily when one enters the viewport    or   2) Establish a new Viewport with the a new Layer Option choice if one wants this change to be permanent. 

 

So if this is how the programme is designed to work I'll file a wish list item.
