Default view on startup
I was wondering if there was a way modify the startup layout of the desktop app? I would like to show (by default) the left folder/projet column at startup. Few of our users get lost pretty easily and this menu helps them to figure out where they are. It would also be interesting to be able to have a default "full screen" mode which is not "locked" in the window.
Hi Pierre-Hugues, thanks for reaching out 🙂
I'm not sure I understood you correctly. Usually, when you open the app, My Work tab is open, and you can see the folder tree on the left side of the Workspace. Could you please provide screenshots of how it looks like for you/your colleagues?

Sure. This is what I see on startup.
This is what I would like to see (mostly for the new users, helps them understand where they are).
You can also see in the 2 screenshots that the upper right windows is not on "full screen".
Hope this help!
Pierre-Hugues, I'm sorry, the behavior I described above only applies to the web version, not the Desktop App. So, in the latest version of the App, you indeed can't see the folder tree when you open the App. So the quick solution is to click this button to see the folder tree:
