[Chimera-users] [SPAM] Re: IOError for non-existing ViewDock_Accelerator.py when executing Chimera

[夏前程]

Thanks Elaine,
After I reload the Keyboard Shortcuts file, the error does not show up.
Now I know what the issue is. I perceived that I've tried to modify certain keyboard shortcuts for ViewDock before. Maybe the changes I've made were saved in ViewDock_Accelerator.py. And it seems that by some accident I deleted that file.
I think this is a stupid question because of my carelessness. Thanks for you patient reply.

With Regards,
Qiancheng Xia

You can see where your preferences file is by starting Chimera and looking in the Preferences (menu: Favorites... Preferences), category: Preferences.
