Save As Dialog Defaults To Thumbnail View

I have noticed when I right click on a file to "save As" the dialog always defaults to Thumbnail View and so I have to click on the views tab to change it to Detail Tab is there a way in folder options or control panel to change the setting to make the dialog box default to detail view ? Some feedback on this would be appreciated.

Open an explorer window and set it to Details view. Click Tools, then Folder Options. On the View tab, click Apply to All Folders. Then, in the scrollable window, uncheck the box for Remember each folder's view settings.

I did this and the settings work for windows explorer but the dialog box is still defaulting to thumbnail view when I right click and choose save as.
