'Sticky' Colour High Terrain settings?

And since i fly with two devices, i'd rather like them to behave in the same way (especially on this topic). I always - and deliberately - use GDL90/iLevil as the position source on the iPad and the built-in GPS as the position source on the Android device, btw. On PC i get to Colour High Terrain under Mapping, Terrain, Colour High Terrain: I set the ref altitude to e.g. 500ft and the map displayed in SD changes to the expected terrain colouring - but only so long as the dialog box stays on the screen. These settings get lost if i exit the dialog box however. How can I retain this Colour High Terrain setting for the next time i open SD for planning on my Desktop PC please? On iPad [landscape mode] i get to Colour High Terrain under the mapping layer icon bottom RH of screen, Colour High Terrain is a switch that stays on and in the same page as the ref altitude is set. But if i 'go flying' the ref altitude settings i used in planning mode are then lost - so i must go back to the Colour High Terrain page to re-select it - but now the reference altitude becomes -300ft, and i cannot change it either, so logically all terrain now shows red. On Android [Portrait mode] i get to Colour High Terrain under the mapping layer icon bottom RH of screen, Colour High Terrain is a tick in a box that stays on and in the same page as the ref altitude is set whilst in planning. But as on the iPad, if i 'go flying', the ref altitude settings i used are then lost - so i must go back to the Colour High Terrain page to re-select it - but now the reference altitude becomes -300ft, i cannot change it either - and as iPad, all terrain also now logically shows red. I have plenty of memory/space on all devices mentioned and would logically expect to download the required High Res Terrain files in the background before going flying if Colour High Terrain is switched on. Am i doing something wrong/misunderstanding the functionality and which of the above might be a bug please?
