Resetting Eagle controls to default

For some reason my controls in Eagle are not standard. For instance I cannot right click after selecting a group to modify it, and I have to pan using the CTRL key. I do have a multi-button mouse, and so these should work. How do I reset Eagle to the default controls? I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but assume the settings are stored somewhere independently.

 

Thanks,

Scott

Hello,

 

I'm not sure what platform you are on but I assume it's Windows. In Linux/macOS there is a hidden file in the users home directory called .eaglerc where all these settings are stored. I assume there is a similar hidden file in the users home directory in Windows. If you have moved to 9.1 then this has now been buried in a version specific folder, I'm not sure 100% where, maybe App Data or some other hidden location? Anyway, wherever it is, removing (or renaming to keep as a backup) that file will cause EAGLE to generate a new one with default settings.

 

Best Regards,

 

Rachael
