Two things I am unable to find that may or may not exist.

1) A default project setting:
I gather most of my favorite icons in a blank project arranged to my liking.  I wish to come up into pixinsight by default right into this project with no other settings or pulldowns required like favorites or something.  Nowdays I always open recent project but wish to avoid that.  The default project could be changed easily so that on a big project taking many days you get back to where you were right away is another usage case.  Of course default would be no such default project so it comes up blank like usual.

2) A settable size for the preview:
Whenever I come into preview for noise reduce or histogram or WHATEVER it is for hitting the 'circle' it would be really nice to come up with a default size which for me is what I do EVERY darn time to get preview window fairly large but not full screen.

Thanks,
Mark

Mark,

It takes a little time to set up, but I simply went in, opened and minimized all my favorite processes, grouped them by topic over to the far right and then saved the whole setup as my "Base Project".  Now anytime I am starting on a fresh project, that's the first thing I load and I have everything right where I want it. 

Hope that helps,

Jim
Really, are clear skies, low wind and no moon that much to ask for?
