Swatches panel does not remember the size of chips when toggling List / Thumbnails view
When I choose to display Large Thumbnail View in Swatches panel’s flyout menu, I expect Ai to respect my size choice and remember it, when I use the two buttons in the panel itself to switch List / Thumbnails modes.
Instead, Illustrator forces it to Small (which can be OK, since I never chose the List to be large) and does not even remember my previous choice when I switch back (which is totally not OK).
See the GIF, please.
Love and honor user data. This is what we use the app for — to create data. This includes not only the actual artwork, but presets and UI settings.

In the swatches Panel there are two buttons to switch between 'thumbnail view' and 'list view' - these buttons do work but they do not retain swatch size preferences set from the fly-out menu.
By this I mean you can set the size of the swatches in the fly-out menu on your panel. Choices are small, medium and large thumbnail views and small and large list views.
So if you set your swatches to appear as anything above small, this setting is NOT retained when using these preview buttons. Medium and large choices revert to small.
This is a bug and needs to be fixed.
