Andrey Razumovsky updated CAY-894:

That's suggested prototype of the welcome screen.
Here are two buttons: New (project) and Open (Project). The right list contains recent projects' filenames. Top line will be just "Project..." (open via file dialog). Selection in the list appears when mouse is over the line.
Hope you'll like it :)

> Add a Welcome Screen (Panel) to CM when no Project is open.
> This makes any application look professional, and it gives new users confidence (in contrast to a big blank green screen), and it's of course all about the "first impression" :).
> This method is practiced even by IDEs (Eclipse, IntelliJ, but also by any desktop application that wants to look professional, e.g. "http://www.productiveme.com/doc/tutorial/1.png" )
