Start Here Page
« on: February 28, 2011, 12:59:46 am »
Any reason why an option to show the Start Here page isn't available from the "View" menu (or some other menu)?

Also interesting that if you close the Start Here page, choose Settings -> Environment, click OK, the start here page will show again. Not sure this makes sense.

I've got a crash when executed the steps above, here is the stack trace (no debug info, so probably it is wrong):

Code
    <frame level="0"/>
    <frame level="1" function="wxEvtHandler::Disconnect(int, int, int, void (wxObject::*)(wxEvent&amp;), wxObject*, wxEvtHandler*)" offset="00000053"/>
    <frame level="2" function="cbAuiNotebook::ResetTabCtrlEvents()" offset="000000f4"/>
    <frame level="3" function="cbAuiNotebook::AllowScrolling(bool)" offset="00000030"/>
    <frame level="4"/>
    <frame level="5" function="wxEvtHandler::ProcessEventIfMatches(wxEventTableEntryBase const&amp;, wxEvtHandler*, wxEvent&amp;)" offset="00000051"/>
    <frame level="6" function="wxEventHashTable::HandleEvent(wxEvent&amp;, wxEvtHandler*)" offset="000000a3"/>
    <frame level="7" function="wxEvtHandler::ProcessEvent(wxEvent&amp;)" offset="000000c7"/>
    <frame level="8" function="wxWindowBase::TryParent(wxEvent&amp;)" offset="00000038"/>
    <frame level="9"/>
    <frame level="10" function="g_closure_invoke" offset="00000163"/>
    <frame level="11"/>
    <frame level="12" function="g_signal_emit_valist" offset="00000801"/>
(most of the time I ignore long posts)

17 months later, Here's a patch that puts a toggle for the start page in the View menu (shouldn't interfere with other start page behavior)

Not useful?

If concerned about cluttering the view menu with yet another option, I could make minimal changes to the core and expose the option in a plugin (a bit more work because that functionality is currently in the main app not the sdk)

Just commit it and don't bother with plugins...

Maybe one with CC - I recall a place where CC was assuming the start page always to be gone... maybe that was in the past only... We'll see... ;-)
