Hi Friedrich,

The Get Started option is great, but it has some limitations.

1. I would really like to be able to _remove_ items from the list.

2. If you right click on an item it works exactly like left clicking on it. IMO when you click on a link like that it should not react until you release the button, i.e. it should react on Button_Up, not Button_Down. IMO the right click should be used for a popup that allowed options such as:

New Project
Open Project
Remove Project from list
Properties
-
Browse Demo Projects

etc. Where the properties would open a window that shows a concentrated information about the project.

Best regards,

Hi Arnor,

1.) It works like the Visual Studio list. To remove it from the list (if you have removed the script) just click the item and it should be removed.

2.) I agree. I'll fix this.

BTW, still working on the Enter/Remove key. Hard to fix:

I don't want to have to remove the script, I only want to remove the link. I have some installs that I work on maybe twice a year. I don't want them floating in that list. Some of them have the same name (different directories) so it get's very, very confusing. See:

for a sample screenshot from VS.NET 2003. Don't use it much, but it demonstrates the problem pretty well!<g>
