Since you are working on the dialogs I wonder if you should have settings used saved so that the next time a primitive is created the last settings used are remembered by Wings3d. Then also add a button to reset to the wings3d default settings.
Not that it's a bad idea, but saving all dialog data to the prefenences would be a lot of work if done dialog by dialog. Another way, perhaps the easiest, would be to save a dialog's data upon pressing OK and auto generating a key to save it under. This would save the coder the task of visiting various location in the code.
But it might be that most users might only want to save a handful of settings from time to time, and thus saving everything might be over compensating. Another problem would be when users need multiple settings saved from the same dialog.
For custom shapes, Saving the file and Merging the file might also be a way to go, and that facility already exists. Perhaps adding a merge file command to the primitives menu would be good?
Maybe a solution might be based on what users would use saved settings for most often.
However, regarding the Reset button, I did manage to add this
It resets the setting to their initial states.

I'll see about this.
