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.

;)

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? I've seen it: you can do that too. However, I prefer a blank page instead of showing others  (my wife)  what I was doing   ;)

 Privacy? Would you like your web browser to show your browser history
on startup?

 That's an extreme analogy, but there may be people working on
projects for client A that don't want client B to see they are working
on.

FWIW, I also find that default panel annying.
A discrete File->OpenRecent would have done :)

Ok point. But in my experience 99% of users love it. It's a great feature and deserves to be on by default.

Best wishes

Why? It's on otherwise unused screen space...

... and it's two clicks less :)

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 =)

I think you are a lone voice on the desert on that one - everyone I encounter loves this feature. (OK that was tempting fate - no doubt someone else will write in now saying they don’t like it too :-P ).

We have that already.

Just for the record.

I am completely with Anita.. There might be some small points against
this but after all it is a huge improvement (which can be switched off
anyway if you dont like it).

So please keep the "Recent Projects" screen..

(But I would also like to be able to delete some of the "moved"
projects which cannot be loaded anymore)

regards
Werner

I have a suggestion for the "open last project" at startup option choice.
In other programs where this usually happens ( iMovie, and other Apple programs, for example )  they save on exit also the memory status of the program ( i.e.  the "display file" on gis or cad or 3d graphics) in way to have an immediate re-start of last saved project.
Instead, simply re-open again the old project (like perform an "Open project..." macro without menus, results too slow to be effettively useful, expecially with very big projects.

Do you think I wrong ?

A presto

Can't this already be done with the recent projects screen now?  The top one is the most recent.

- Open QGIS

- Double click top item

Done.

In other programs where this usually happens ( iMovie, and other Apple programs, for example )  they save on exit also the memory status of the program ( i.e.  the "display file" on gis or cad or 3d graphics) in way to have an immediate re-start of last saved project.
Instead, simply re-open again the old project (like perform an "Open project..." macro without menus, results too slow to be effettively useful, expecially with very big projects.

Do you think I wrong ?

A presto

I know this. 

Sorry that my English is incomprehensible :(

I was trying to explain that I think the "open the last project" makes sense only if it is quick to do so (and I tried to explain how to do this the other programs).

Sorry, nothing.  

I can explain it only in Italian.  :(
