Looking for Config option or DTL option that controls if a drawing displays changes since last save?

Looking for Config option or DTL option that controls if a drawing displays changes since last save?

Good Day Everyone,

Years ago I ran into a Pro/E config or dtl option (while working at another employer) that controls if the drawing displays changes to the model or assembly since it was last saved.
When you save a drawing while this option turned on the drawing freezes the current state of the views. Now you make a change to the assembly or part and then open the saved drawing. The drawing now shows the before modified state of the models when it is opened(drawing does not represent the current state of the models in session).
To get the drawing to show the current state of the models you have to click on Update Sheets for every drawing and every sheet.

I want to find this option so I can turn it off.
Can anyone point me to the config option or setting that controls this?

Thanks
Don Anderson

You have also set save_display no in config.pro. This option disables saving of "screenshot" of drawing into drawing file.

Auto_regen_views in the config.pro

You have also set save_display no in config.pro. This option disables saving of "screenshot" of drawing into drawing file.

This was the key I was looking for. Thank you Martin!

With save_display set to no then doing a review > Update Sheets > on each drawing sheet and saving the drawing.
The next time you open the drawing it will show any changes to the model.
