Viewport gradient disappears when I prep materials

When the world gets prepped, if the viewport is set to be a gradient, the gradient disappears.

Sorry for the delayed reply, my guess is this happens due to "Improve UI" which sets the world to texture mode. If you don't want this, try turning off "Improve UI" in the popup before prepping materials. Let me know if the issue persists even after that though!

Confirmed myself that this occurs. Setting is the same one described in this video, under Preferences > Theme, 3D Viewport, scroll down to Theme Space, and then select Linear Gradient.

After running Prep UI, the gradient no longer appears, even when going back to solid mode.

edit: This is due to it switching lighting over from "Theme" to "World" under the Background section of the Viewport Shading options window in the 3D view.

Yep, it's due to switching to world. Switching to theme fixes it
