Possibly - but until you test such a thing, a statement either way is
just conjecture... Hence why we are testing it!
Admittedly, this was perhaps a slightly riskier test then something
like the handler menu; although had it actually *only* affected people
who were still in 'first run' mode... No-one on this list would have
probably noticed, thus it would not have occasioned any comment.
Lumpy custard!
Other people who have commented on this are all "on this list";
otherwise they would have been unable to comment.
I noticed the backdrop because "there it was" when, having installed
8.1.6 RC 2, I started it up (Mac OS).
I have just installed that on Linux (64-bit) and got the backdrop at
startup as well.
I did say a "few rude words", but did not bother to comment on it until
others raised the issue as it
did not fuss me unduly . . .
There will be an RC-3 which fixes that problem at least - whether or
not the auto-backdrop will be kept (in first run mode) will be largely
down to what the analysis of results of the testing say.
What kind of 'analysis' would that constitute?
Richmond.
Warmest Regards,
Mark.
