If using a "sample" is required that should be indicated someplace where users will find it a project creation time. I've been using NB for many years and have never had to resort to using a sample to create a project. It's not what a user would expect in my opinion. If NB wants to maintain

I don't think most users are going to build a project from samples (they expect what's on the menu to work). Fortunately, I cared enough to find work-arounds people had posted on the internet but for new users it's a bombshell. On Fri, Sep 27, 2019 at 7:07 AM Geertjan Wielenga wrote: > Go to
