On start up, why doesn’t Scapple open the file being last worked on when a session is ended?
This isn’t a direct answer to your question because I have no idea why Scapple doesn’t offer to open the most recent but there is a workaround.
Double-click on the .SCAP file in the folder where Scapple saves your files and the program will open it.
If it is something you use a lot you can make a desktop shortcut to the .SCAP file.
I agree, this would be a great feature. Or maybe have it open to a small menu that lists .scap files in a certain folder.
I am curious why scapple spawns a new instance when you open a recent project, it leaves the original instance open then opens a completely new one with the project. Would be nice if it opened in the already open scapple instead of having a new instance run.
