I find that 95% of the time I want to have the Maintain Association with the Project to Sketch. This is an extra click of the checkbox every time.
Is there a way to default this to true?
Not for those of us that rarely use it.No. But it's a great idea.

I have been banging on about this for a while as well as having the option of setting default to create reference figure instead of create sketch figure. Alternative to the latter would be to have the selected option persistant so it's the same next time. I find myself changing both settings most of the time.I find that 95% of the time I want to have the Maintain Association with the Project to Sketch.

Was just coming here to follow up with and if we can default to reference as well that would be great.I have been banging on about this for a while as well as having the option of setting default to create reference figure instead of create sketch figure.

Maybe instead of an option to set it default, having it remember and maintain the last selection would be better?
Just a few clicks each time is thousands of clicks when modeling. Good software optimizes when possible to minimize the operators work.
I completely understand that. THIS IS WHY IT SHOULD BE A SETTING.What works for you may not be that which works for others.
I would be clicking to uncheck every time.
I would accept having the last state carried over as a good compromise.
What I meant was: the option to change the default at users discretion would be great. Alibre just changing it from to the other is not.You don't think having the option to set it to default would be acceptable to those who rarely use it?
If it is an OPTION, could the person who rarely uses it, just opt to not set that to default? If it were a simple system setting like a checkbox, radio button or similar, it seems that one could turn it off just as easily as they turned it on.

Yes, when doing software modifications the default behavior should remain if possible. So in this situation, if the two settings were added, it would default to current mode and allow users to modify it to fit there needs.What I meant was: the option to change the default at users discretion would be great.
