That may work, but with the concept of global settings being new, I
think some careful considering needs to take place before any app
restores all settings without explicit consent from the user. Otherwise,
you have the potential to wipe out lots of hard work without trying. A
better idea would be to store all changes that your app might make when
the app starts, and restore them when necessary from your own "backup."
This is what the Quick Start Wizard does. You can toggle/change every
setting that the quick start offers, and then escape at the end, only to
have all your settings set back to what they were before the app
started. It's more work, but it's also more reliable.

I think Kevin has a valid point: before 7.5 using refreshSets was all
that was need to restore all settings if you had changed one or more;
now, it doesn't work the same, and this won't do it (as you say, it
only restores the non-global settings). How would one accomplish
restoration of all settings? would loading default.set, then calling
refreshSets do the job?
thanks.

I'm not able to duplicate any problems with RefreshSets. Note that
this method will not reset the global settings, but only those that
have been toggled to program specific. You can test this by opening
Notepad, then going into the Notepad set, and toggling the Activated
verbosity option to program specific. Then launch Immed, and execute
RefreshSets. If you then to back to the Notepad set, you'll notice
that the activated verbosity's scope has been set back to global (in
other words, it as been reset).

Hi:
In my proofreading script, I used the refreshsets() command to setting
my proofreading settings back to the way they were when they were last
saved. This strategy seemed to work in all the WE versions before
7.5, but in 7.5 it no longer works.
Has the Refreshsets() command been removed entirely or has the syntax changed?
