I'm not sure there is. I don't really use it, so don't take my word that there isn't.
You probably know this but you can bring it up by pressing ‘/’. And you can right click on its icon, click ‘construction parameters’ and then set its defaults. So that's just twice as much work (once to open Houdini), once to display the construction plane.
Plus there are some options under ‘preferences/interactive tools’.
Probably an easy RFE to get implemented. They could add it under the grid tab.

Hi Jerry, to set Construct Plane on as default, you could put this python code in the 123.py or 456.py
More information about the 123.py and 456.py is here:
https://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini/hom/locations.html#startup [www.sidefx.com]
import hdefereval def functionToBeExecutedOnStartup(): for pane in hou.ui.curDesktop().paneTabs() : if pane.type() == hou.paneTabType.SceneViewer : cplane = pane.constructionPlane() cplane.setIsVisible(True) # executeDeferred, because we have to wait for the UI hdefereval.executeDeferred(lambda: functionToBeExecutedOnStartup())
