Solved Qt Creator Suggestion (Windows): Open recent files through taskbar
-
I'm not sure where to post suggestions in general, so I guess I could recommend a section for that somewhere on this website.
Second, on Windows, most software with an open/save file system have an option where you can right-click their icon on the taskbar and immediately open a recent file. Just a suggestion to implement this in Qt.
For example, right-clicking MS Word will show recent files (as well as pinned files, if any). And I can quickly open a recent file through there.
All this is just one step shorter than having to wait for Qt to load, open the specific recent file, and wait a second time to load. Alternatively, I can go to the specific folder with the .pro file and open that. However, this right-click shortcut is simply more convenient.
