Thanks: 1 times
I purchased two ViaCADs for Mac, one for my office and the other for my home. I have been trying to learn how to use them by working primarily at home. Now I find the Default Pen and Default Fill color palettes are corrupted(a white shows to be white, but is gray and a gray shows to be green and is green), apparently by me, at home. So far I have not caused any damage to the program at work.

Question: How can I repair the palettes at home or copy them from the program at work and replace the ones at home?

Also, as a thought, What did I likely do to cause this problem, so I can try not to repeat?


Thanks.

Hi Lew

>>Question: How can I repair the palettes at home or copy them from the program at work and replace the ones at home?

You can reset your settings from the dialog Preferences: Factory All:

Or you can delete this file which contains your default pen colors :

/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/com.encore.viacad3dv9/VC3Prefs.ini

You should also be able to copy this file from one machine to another.
