Description Lars Vogel CLA 2020-06-10 10:28:28 EDT
Currently the "Workbench" button on the Welcome screen minimized the welcome page. I suggest to find a better name for this, as user I would not expect that clicking on "Workbench" minimized the view and put it into the toolbar.

Maybe it should just be called "Hide Welcome Screen"? Or "Minimize Welcome Screen"?
Comment 2 Andrew Obuchowicz CLA 2020-06-10 11:02:10 EDT
Or even just "Hide", to keep it short.
Comment 3 Lars Vogel CLA 2020-06-10 11:08:05 EDT
All proposals sound good me. Lets wait what Matthias says, he worked frequently on the Welcome screen.
