Welcome Screen - Can Recent Projects show full folder path?

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

So, after creating a few projects in a “src” and “bin” type folder structure, I’m finding it’s hard to differentiate projects on my Welcome Screen. “Recent Projects” only shows the name of the folder containing the main.lua file. When I run my build scripts, that folder is not unique and I end up with the attached screenshot (“Welcome-Folders.png”).

Is there a setting I can change somewhere to show the full folder path? Or some other suggestion as to how I can differentiate these better?

It’s been that way for a bit, and while I feel your pain (I like to use that interface to organize and find the many things I work on regularly too), I can only suggest you name your source (root) folder with a meaningful name instead of a generic structure name.

I know, this may break your method of organization a bit, but short term that is the only fix.

Alternately, you can request a feature change here: ask that the GUI include the root folder AND one sub-folder or some other creative solution if you have one.

Thanks for the reply. Just wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing something obvious here. :slight_smile:  I’ll see if I can work around it as you’ve suggested. There’s probably a way I can get build script to take care of it.
