unexpected behaviors around picking solution at startup #35

Open adamfoneil opened 2 years ago

adamfoneil commented 2 years ago

The startup dialog where you pick a solution is causing some confusion.

Usman had trouble filling the solution list. It looked like he was trying to pick a single solution (treating it as a single file picker) rather than let the list populate from a directory tree of all .sln files under a path.

Might consider having an explicit single solution option that works like a classic file picker.

The idea behind the solution list dropdown is that I find the file picker tedious when all solutions are typically under a single path.

picking a single solution file should also be there because currently user has to do two steps to get to the solution list. Single Solution Pick will get the user quickly to the application. And also the order of the controls on the view are confusing. The label of the folder should come first and then the dropdown so that user can follow the steps easily...
