Retaining Display Options

I have Section/Elevations markers selected as "As in settings" in the display options, together with Section Depth as "do not show"

When I change from the screen display between the Project Map and View sets, the sections default to "Normal" and "Show". I've save the file with the sections showing the way I wanted only to open the file latter and find the sections showing incorrectly.

How do I control the display settings to my choosen defaults.
I have no problem with any of the others.

Any suggestions. ?

Redefine the views.

Yes, except that the views are generated from the Project Map plans, and it is there that the sections change. So, every time I change the plans, the sections default to the unwanted option, therefore I have to change the options in the views, before I "redefine"

I guess I have to somewhow work around this, meaning, wait until I am ready to plot and remember to make right the options display.

I got it.
1. In the Project Map, define the Options.
2. Move to the Views
3. Highlight the view to modify
4. Select the display option defined in 1
5. "Redefine" the view.

Thanks for pointing in the right direction.
