Making traces skeletal and pads hollow as default whenever opening a design or symbol regardless of its inherited settings?

Greetings.

I wonder if there is a way to make the PCB Editor always start with traces in "Skeletal" view and pads "Unfilled" mode.

If saving a board or symbot in those modes, the modes are preserved if and when they are reopened. Designs created

and saved in other "visibility" modes appear with filled traces and pads.

I have been looking for a setting that could be used to override the defaults (preserve display mode) but found none.

Another question is why the trace/shape/shadow display mode (opacity) is located in the color menu but the pad vilsibility

setting(s) are in the design setup canvas.

The design setup menu can be invoked without loading a board or symbol, but if having set the parameters and then

proceeding with board or symbol load, the settigs are lost.
