Display Sets > Material Persistence
Toggles on and off the ability to save any material changes made to display sets to another .vue file. When you select this command and use either File > Save As or File > Export > Save View to .Vue File, all updated material assignments such as color and textures are saved to the new, generated .vue file. The new assignments become the default material settings for the new .vue file.
When you clear this command, the material assignments are saved only to the project database and are not saved with any new .vue files.
