SolidWorks Feature Propertymanager doesn't reset

Folks,

Were are on SW2022, seems that every time we create a feature, i.e. fillet, the settings that are chosen stick for each new created feature of that type until you change it again, even after reboot.

for example, if we pic a face fillet, close the fillet command allowing it to take affect. The next time we add a fillet the face fillet option is pre-selected.

i don't remember doing that in previous versions...

Any ideas or thoughts?

Thanks,
Brian

I've seen a lot of people asking for this to be implemented over the years, perhaps it was done as a setting? I didn't really see anything speaking about it

I am sure I am just not looking in the right place for the setting, I also had seen folks asking for this not too long ago, just don't remember them implementing it, I haven't seen anything in the SW knowledge base either...yet

appreciate the response!

Hey Dan,

Thanks, I do remember seeing that, just didn't remember where, appreciated...

Do you know of any way to turn a switch to stop this action?

Thanks again sir!

I'm pretty sure you can't.

I don't think that you can, as far as I know. I looked through the settings and couldn't find anything.
