How to change Default Decend View type

I dont know why, the default decend view "schematic" should be prior to others, but now it changes to "schematic_behav", (Figure 1)
And another strange problem is when I Check Hierachy, the "schematic_behav" is also prior to "schematic" (Figure 2), what could I do to set search "schematic" first, thank you!

    Are you using a config view and viewing the configured schematic? If so, the default view for descend is whatever the view to use is for that instance - which is governed by the rules set in the hierarchy editor.

    Alternatively, it's what is set in the Schematic Options->Editor in the View Name List field.

    Thank you Andrew! I didn't use configured schematic... I recreated a schematic and solved the probelm... Maybe some problems related to "Cliosoft SOS"

    Change of "Schematic Options->Editor" works temporarily  when I re-open the problem is still there.. The configuration of "View Name List" seems to be saved in this specific cellview (other top schematics which contain "schmatic_behav" don't have this problem). Anyway, many thanks!

    Look at Edit->Properties->CellView on the specific cellView that has the problem. I expect that there is a property called viewNameList stored on the cellView as that is used to set the default value of the View Name List for that specific cellView. If that's not there, it defaults back to the schematic viewNameList cdsenv variable.

    If there is a viewNameList property in the cellView properties, you can delete the property, and that will fix the issue for that cellView.
