Just restarting the app will not recreate the database. > I have already read about that "gsettings> reset-recursively > <schemaid>". But I was not sure about the exact string for schemaid. In your case: gsettings reset-recursively org.gtk.ned btw, you probably will want to change that to org.nim as you are just a normal text editor afaics nothing to do with directly. > For example for this example, > > https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/ch01s04.html#id-1.2.3.12.5 > > do you have an idea how I can reset all the GSettings modifications > that may have be done by that application? The answer is in the gschema xml file, there is a line with <schema ... id="your schema id">, the gsettings command line util requires this id. There is a low level dconf util but I caution ppl to use it as it does not have any knowledge of the schema, iow it can mess you up pretty bad. I have written most of my dealings with gsettings down on [1], perhaps it is useful for you. ~infirit [1] http://wiki.mate-desktop.org/docs:gsettings _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
