In the "home" tab there are two panels, left and right. The left panel only displays "Recent". My idea is the hope that this can be expanded to be more useful.
If it is possible, it would be great to have all (your) configured printers listed in the left panel. When you click on one of the printers in that panel, the the "Recently Opened" display in the right panel would change to only show projects for that particular printer. Clicking back on "Recent" would change back to a "regular" list in the right panel of all projects.
To expand on the functionality of the printer list in the left panel... It would also be a nice feature to have a right click pop-up menu on each printer. Some of the features of this right click menu could be... 1. "New Project" that the printer type is automatically selected when the "Prepare" screen opens. 2. Jump straight to the "Device" tab with that printers connection information populated without having to first go to the prepare screen, select machine and then to the device tab.
For those that have many printers, this could be a huge and helpful feature (IMO), as at this time there is no easy way to keep track of which machine printed which project. Example, with 8 printers in my shop and a long list of "Recently Opened" projects, the only way I can keep track of which machine did what is to color code them so that thumbnail images are different colors assigned to each printer. But that also gets a little confusing.
