> There is a related issue here that changing groups while projects are loading doesn't work. Making that work correctly and quickly might solve half the issue. right. The automatic project open after launch will fail if the project group is switched while it is in progress. But once its done pg switching works fairly reliable in my experience. even when done quickly. That is also the reason I pointed out `--close-group` exists, which will open the `none` group with nothing else loaded - avoiding the entire problem. NB 30 can start in about 2.5s after initial cache creation (first start after each cluster activation takes longer) - on linux at least. So you should get to the project group button on the dashboard fairly quick. We might be able to put a combo box somewhere for the groups or make it easier to work with in other ways. I know there used to be a plugin which added a project group switcher. I don't understand the requirement of it having to happen before nb starts. Implementing this before startup would be tricky (the startup sequence is already complex enough) and would likely also make it difficult to use FlatLaf for it. The more maintainable way would be to add something similar to `--close-group` (e.g `--pick-group`) which would also start with group `none` but would open the group picker with the main window (`@OnShowing`). User safes a click. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service. To respond to the message, please log on to GitHub and use the URL above to go to the specific comment.
