opening files defaults?

Does anyone know if you can open files with the default setting to "preview"
and the display configuration to "details" instead of "list"?
 
You can make a mapkey to set the details option but since the preview button is a toggle it will change everytime if you run the mapkey. If you only use the mapkey the first time and then use the menu or icon for file open it will work.

mapkey open @MAPKEY_NAMEopen files with preview;@MAPKEY_LABELopen;\
mapkey(continued) ~ Select `main_dlg_cur` `MenuBar1`1 `File`;\
mapkey(continued) ~ Close `main_dlg_cur` `MenuBar1`;~ Activate `main_dlg_cur` `File.psh_open`;\
mapkey(continued) ~ Activate `file_open` `Preview`1 ;~ Select `file_open` `Ph_path.DispButton`;\
mapkey(continued) ~ Close `file_open` `Ph_path.DispButton`;\
mapkey(continued) ~ Select `file_open` `Radgp_table`1 `b`;
 
Thanks dr_gallup....that was my other option to create a mapkey. I was just hoping there was a config option that I may have overlooked. Thanks for the help.
