Ability to remove previews from the new 2015 Inventor start screen

Ability to remove previews from the new 2015 Inventor start screen

I miss the possibility to remove previews from the new home-screen in Inventor 2015 manually via context-menu.

 

I often have to create temporary files for evaluating new designs.

After deleting such files on the start-screen broken-link icons are displayed.

It can be done through editing the registry as described in this topic:

But it should be possible from within inventor, so you have my vote.

I agree, there should be an option to either change the number of files on the recent list or clear them completly

Agreed, this would be a nice feature, editing the registry to accomplish this seems a little clunky.

it's rediculous that the list limit can only be altered in the registry, this should be a setting via the home page itself!

I think there should be an icon in the top left corner (opposite to the pin icon) so that you can delete the file from the recent files list and/or a purge button so that you can remove all broken links from the list.
