Weird Sketcher Icons

Weird Sketcher Icons

Weird Sketcher Icons

(OP)
I had Catia installed and running fine, when one day I noticed my Sketcher Icons were out of place, or not where they're known to be normally.  This was the case for my R17 and R18 installation.  I uninstalled Catia completely from my machine, folders, CATSettings folders, everything.  I then reinstalled R17, pointed to an empty, newly created CATSettings location, and I got the same issue.  Please refer to my attached image.  Has anyone ever seen this before?  Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

click the home setting at option and select <restore parameters value to default one > found at the extreme lower right corner


after this on customize option on <tool bar> tab select restore all , restore position.

restart catia

Hi sanket123,

Thanks for the help.  I'm not sure what you mean by your first step.

"click the home setting at option and select <restore parameters value to default one > found at the extreme lower right corner"

Home setting at option?  Is this in Tools>Options?  Where is the Home setting?

Thanks again, sanket123.  I want to try this.

Sanket123,

Never mind, I found what you were telling me to do.  In Tools>Options in the lower left corner, the reset parameters icon.  Yeah, that didn't work.  Even when I went to the Customize area and restored all icon positions it still didn't reset.  I have no idea why this is happening.  What's strange is that I have both Catia R17 and R18, both point to their own CATSettings folders, and both Sketcher workbench problems are identical.  No idea.
Thanks anyway, sanket123.

RE: Weird Sketcher Icons

I've had something similiar, doubling icons and strange icon behavior. Think we concluded that was a corrupt installation and reinstalled it.
