I can't change materials

Hello,
I have a little problem.
The same wall complex profile in 2 different files AC 19.
As you can see with the screen capture, editing panels materials are not the same. How can I change display settings with the same options?

Thanks for your help.

Go to the Options\Project Preferences\Legacy Dialog.
In one file, the "Use legacy intersection and Surface methods for model elements" checkbox is checked, in the other it is unchecked.
This causes the difference.
