'Select Inserted Object' not persistent

Under the Advanced Objects menu, the ‘Select inserted object’ checkbox is not persistent. When you restart Studio, it is always set to ‘False’ again.

This is one of the most annoying (and very small) bugs in Studio. I call it a bug because I expect such a button to be persistent. I want the button to stay checked :frowning:

Steps to replicate it (why not)

  1. Open Studio
  2. Make sure ‘Advanced Objects’ view is open
  3. Set ‘Select inserted object’ checkbox to true
  4. Close out of Studio
  5. Restart studio.
    Result: Checkbox has reset to ‘false’

I was going to bring this up. Recently, I’ve been preferring the Insert Basic Object option in the context menu, which is affected by this setting. It’s annoying to have to open the advanced objects panel just to toggle it every time.

This is one of those small UX things that just hits you after using studio a while. I thought it was an issue with settings() being resetted, but it appears to be a setting stored somewhere else as settings() has been fixed (as far as I know).

Glad to know I’m not alone with this!
