I’ve gotten my page so screwed up I just want to do a clean wipe and reinstall. Did it once this morning and after reinstalling it opened the same mess of a starting page. Help appreciated.

You shouldn’t need to uninstall Pinegrow. Just save your HTML file or project to a different directory. All the page and project settings are stored in the project, not as part of the Pinegrow application settings.

Indeed, I confirm the above statements. It is possible that the display of certain features may be disrupted after a Pinegrow update, and performing a reset can be beneficial. However, when it comes to the content of projects, reinstalling Pinegrow has no effect.

Being inexperienced with this as I am, I should probably withhold comments but it seems to me at this point that it would be helpful to have a reset to default view button. My two cents. Thanks for taking the time to give a response 🙂 .

Try going to Window \> Workspace \> Default to reset it to the defaults.
