Ceniza:
I'm finding the new way to create new header/source files using wizards excessive. The old way with some new name (like "Quick create new file..." or something) should be back with some key accelerator like "Ctrl+Shift+N" while keeping the wizard, really.

In the meanwhile this seems to be the fastest way to do it if I don't need to add it to a target:


--- Code: (bash) ---touch newfile.cpp
newfile.cpp
--- End code ---

:P

Agreed. It just seems overkill to use a wizard to create a new header/source file.......

Me too! Pretty, nice work, but too much.

It's like using my '73 German 2 ton Deutz diesel to cut the lawn.
Doable, but wholely unnecessary.

Can we have an "advanced user" checkbox option to turn some wizards off?

@all:
I can see why you think it's overkill. And I agree with you. For a new empty file, it is too much. But these new wizards are there to offer much more than empty files.
True, currently you can just create empty files and it's annoying having to get through a wizard for this. But this won't always be the case.

So please help us here.
Why do you think it's too much?
[*] Are the clicks needed too many?
[*] Is the "New" dialog scary/slow?
[*] Too many pages in the files wizards?
[*] None of the above? (elaborate please)

Let's see what's more annoying and schedule it for fixing :)

Hehehehehehehe...
I'll add
[*] Tens clicks to solve a one-click job :)

I think the best would be add 'empty C file', 'empty C++ file' and 'empty H file' icon in first page after pressing 'new' button.
I think it's easy to add and allow you to keep doors opened for future enancements.
