It's either the previously used project or a new empty project. The new empty project behaves almost like "no project" because you don't have to save it. IIRC the "Close Project" entry was added after a user request, but it is rather useless. You cannot do much anything when projects are closed. Everything is disabled then. I also remember the initial confusion because of this feature but now it feels very functional. A project never needs to be closed explicitly, it gets closed when another project is opened or when the whole IDE is closed. Juha
