Settings not memorised

Post by merosss »

Hello Coppelia,
I'm using V-Rep 3.1.0 on Ubuntu 12.04 and I'm experiencing two main problems:
  • 1. The recent scene menu is always reset at every boot of the program(empty at boot)
  • 2. The 3-times-checkbox that appears for certain modifications never goes away
It seems to me like there is some issue with a config file or so, but I don't know exactly what could be the problem.
Thanks.

Hello,

for your 2 problems, some information is written to a file: system/settings.dat
Can you check that:
  • The file exists
  • The access rights to the file are correct
  • The access rights to the parent folder are correct (system)
Cheers

Thanks, the second one was the problem! It was sufficient to do:

Code: Select all

sudo chown myUserName settings.dat
and now everything is working correctly.
By the way, I can't thank you enough for the simulator, it's really awesome!
