There should be a "Restore all defaults" button #272

Closed mike-fabian closed 2 years ago

mike-fabian commented 2 years ago

A "Restore all defaults" button (just like the one ibus-table has already) would be useful to do a sort of "factory-reset" and go back to sane default settings when one has just played around with the settings and messed things up too much.

I hesitated to implement that because it was quite a lot of work to get this right for ibus-table.

But now I think it is actually much easier for ibus-typing-booster as typing-booster doesn’t have the additional complications that default settings could also come from tables.

In case of ibus-typing-booster, default settings come **only** from the GSettings schema.

So resetting to the default should be fairly easy.

What dictionaries and input methods are set when "Restore all defaults” is clicked depends on the current locale.

When running in mr_IN.UTF-8 locale one would get different dictionaries and input methods than when running in en_US.UTF-8 locale as in this video.
