      ahoi, new user here
      is it possible to have the last project one worked on load when opening HISE? it seems to be on the current project but the module tree is empty and I always have to load the xml or archive manually.

      also is it possible to save xml/archive when closing HISE? it happens more than often that I spend hours trying to figure something out and forget to save because I'm not asked that there are unsaved changes.

      all the best

        I find it strange that when I open HISE there's no project loaded but when I go to File > Recent Projects the latest project I was working on is checked, as if it's the currently loaded project.

        Also a newbie though, so I might be misunderstanding.

          So, loading project, and loading xml are two different things

          I reccomend always using Load project, and navigating to the file.
          This will automatically load both the project and ask you if you want to automatically open the last modified xml.

          You can have multiple xmls for one project.

          It's a confusing system because the Ui doesn't have a project manager.
          It was something I was meaning to bring up at somepoint.

            @griffinboy Is there somewhere that describes the terms project, preset, XML and archive, and how they relate in the hierarchy?

            I looked at the Glossary in the docs but it's a bunch of articles, not a list of terms.

              I might be wrong, someone please correct me but I think:

              -Project is essentially the project files (images, audio files, dsp).

              -The Xml file is only the Interface script as well as the position of Ui elements on the screen.

              The easiest way to tell is just to open the xml in notepad and read it I recommend doing that, then you will know what is saved there.

                @Morphoice pull the latest commit, there's a welcome screen which lets you load the last xml with a click
