I prefer the new "recent projects" screen as opposed to a blank screen or opening my "last project".
As I bounce between a couple of projects from day to day, the list is quite helpfule. Ranked by frequency, I'd estimate my use cases as: 70% I'm opening the last project I worked on. 20% I'm opening a project I've recently worked on. 5% I'm starting a new project. 5% I'm opening a project I worked on a long time ago. Even though I'm usually opening my most recent project, I still prefer the list of my last few recent projects because I do use them somewhat regularly, while getting my "most recent" is only one click away. So the pain of clicking once to get my most recent project 70% of the time outweighs the risk of entering a file dialog 20% of the time. And considering that in previous releases I had to enter a file dialog 100% of the time, this is a great improvement =) M On Wed, 2015-11-11 at 07:29 -0800, qgis-developer- [email protected] wrote: > > > It'd still be good to know why you want the recent project disabled > on > > startup. > > > > Trade Secret. > :( > > No, seriously: I wrote a book and I had to change the pages and > images. > > ;) > > > A presto > > Roberto > > PS: I could turn the question around: why you entered a useless page > of old > projects, and instead open the last directly, as does MapWindow?
