[Equest-users] Hey, how do you guys restore defaults?

[Jeremy McClanathan]

Another option is to use the search and replace function of a text editor to find the line of code and replace with a blank line.  Sometimes I will do this in excel, then run a macro to delete all the blank rows and clean up the file.

You can also copy and paste the "restored default" in spreadsheet view with CTRL C and CTRL V. But you can only paste one cell at a time - it doesn't work with multiple selections. Its a bit faster than right clicking though

I've tried and tested some hopefull-keystrokes to achieve the same thing, but I've only been able to get to where you are, 'right-click mouse & press "r".   But as I continue to get more practice (doing this a lot) I have gotten faster at the "click".  so, while it is still frustrating, it doesn't take as long as it used too.    lol

Ive also observed that by taking time to 'restore defaults' only once in my file and then use the aid of "user defaults", "global parameters", "user expressions", and "define link-ing" my inputs that I can stream-line my default inputs via these short-cut methods.  At least it has been working for me.   The clicking exercise of restoring-defaults only once in the model process is far more bearable.

I learned a while ago that I can fly through spreadsheets and wizard/detailed edit screens restoring defaults by using my mouse to right-click a field and then using my other hand to hit the letter 'r.'

It occurred to me that for spreadsheet edits where I'm alternately entering new values and restoring defaults, it would be handy if there was a keystroke-only manner to do this (i.e. not using the mouse)... something like ctrl+r or some other way to bring up the cell-specific context menu...  Feels kinda clunky everytime I'm in this situation...

Is anyone aware of any alternate methods to restoring defaults?
