Change default part reflectivity

Good day Team,
Please see attached image for your reference.
Any way we can change how reflective a part is? Or better yet, make the appearance matt by default? The default look of the part is highly reflective and it is doing my head in..
I suspect another way of achieving this is to change the default part studio lighting options, how do we do that? Googling / looking under the help section didn't give me any helpful answers.
Thanks for the help guys.

Same issue but no solution as of now.
Don't think you can change that. I like it as is because it helps with seeing curvature and smoothness of non flat surfaces. But an option to turn it off wouldn't be a bad thing. You could always work in unshaded mode if its that bothersome.
This isn't currently a setting that can be changed, but you can click the little grey cube at the top right and change the view mode to unshaded. I suspect it will eventually be possible to represent materials better in the viewport though.

Please fix this.
I don't understand why the default part reflectivity in the modelling environment is so shiny. In Solidworks, it's similar to "RealView Graphics". YUCK!
Surely this uses more compute than a more neutral representation? I find it very distracting. Please give us more modelling environment view options.

Here is an improvement request that would provide a solution for this:
Textures like SolidWorks - Improvement Request
I needed an option the other day to turn off reflections since I was using the part studio to generate shapes for the product. No way to do this with native tools yet aside from maybe putting it into render studio then making a special material.
