Hello Adrian, I think a project file (.xpr) might already contains data that changes regularly, such as the documents that are currently open. My experience is that my project files are frequently different from a version control systems point of view; it is possible that I have changed important project properties, but find it surprising on the regularity at which I am told that the project files are different. Possibly, it might be worth thinking about what information would be better left out of them from a version control perspective.

Hello Wendell,
Thank you for the feedback.
That's an interesting idea to keep the file history on a project basis. I have logged it to our issue tracking tool and we will analyze and implement it in a future version of Oxygen. The only concern I have with this is that if we keep the file history in the project file (.xpr), some people might find it annoying when working with a version control system since the file keeps getting modified. So maybe we should use a separate file to store the project file history.

Hi,
I use File/Reopen a lot. But I also work with lots of different files in lots of different projects, so I find that files may drop off even a long "File/Reopen" list.
I wonder if individual projects couldn't keep their own lists of files to reopen? Maybe this would be a "File Reopen" option in the projects menu. Then when I'm in a project it would retain a history of files to reopen, even when I haven't felt it worthwhile to add them to the project itself. (Yes, this does happen.)
Silly idea? Some other way to do this already?
Cheers, Wendell
