Worth a shot, though. I was going to suggest deleting the preferences if the
problem started after tweaking some settings, but sounds like you already tried
that.

Ah! Here is something for you to try, though. Try deleting the file
"com.trolltech.unknown-organization.plist" from your Preferences folder, if
present. (Trolltech produces Qt, the interface kit used by LDView.) This file
appears to contain the bulk of LDView's actual preferences.

I don't have that file; but Travis pointed me to another preferences file I had
missed in /Library/Preferences which was named com.LDView.plist. I guess I
missed it because of the com. prefix which the file in my own preferences
directory didn't have, or maybe I didn't even look there, I'm not sure.

Anyway, removing that one has allowed me to start LDView again, so all is better
now. I've sent the offending file to Travis too for analysis; but at least it
works again now.

Yay!

Great! I suspect I found the funnily named file because I was running an earlier
version of LDView on this machine. I'm glad you're back in business.

True. If deleting the trolltech preferences file resets it successfully, you
could always try going through the preferences again one at a time until you
find the setting that caused the problem.

I'm way too lazy to do that :-)

Thanks for the help,

Jean-Marc

No problem. Be well,
Jim
