<p dir="auto">I think it makes most sense if the open directory dialog pops up first.</p>
<p dir="auto">All other solutions IMHO have the risk to be overwhelming, and the risk to suggest this might be a "classic monolithic IDE with overcomplicated settings" scenario again. By having just a simple directory open dialog show immediately & at first the user is kind of primed this is a more modern workflow, and then when a follow-up settings thing shows up <em>but with everything already filled out</em> it is way more obvious that touching anything else is optional, and that geany is quite happy to proceed without me bothering with more than just having specified the folder. I think that would not be obvious if I was greeted with a base folder + name + whatever dialog to start with, with nothing filled in yet.</p>
