Revision history [back]

ok. so after struggling for a few hours after this post I checked out rqt -h which showed me all available options including --clear-config. which is suppose to clear the configuration (including all perspectives and plugin settings). So I did this:-

rqt --clear-config

and then

rqt_graph --clear-config

and one of these did the trick. Hope this helps someone.
