Yes, definitely. But first we need to get the Recents View up and we need to figure out how much we want to make the pinning a synced/cloud thing or just local to the Studio install. It will likely start off as local only either way. No ETA but it’s on the short list.

Thanks good point! I don’t think it was a intentional thing just needed someone to point it out 
There’s a totally new tour being built and almost done that addresses all the issues of the current tour. Hoping that comes out in the next couple weeks.
The docking system no longer purposely or automatically resets. It’s possible there’s a bug where we aren’t properly saving/restoring layout when switching into play test but more likely is you’re hitting the “faster play solo” options where we disable plugins at play test time. You can change these in Studio Settings > Studio > Test
We are considering customization on Start Page but first we want to get the Recents View, saving last viewed options, and then pinning done. Then we’ll see if there’s still a need for custom views. It will be a little while.

Although this isn’t specific to the new starting screen, I’ve noticed that emoji that don’t have a text-only fallback appear to use an “X in a box” character.
The loading/preparation dialog box and Asset Manager panel also do this, but emoji appear correctly in the tabs (where scripts open)…
…and the title bar, which uses a text-based emoji representation.
This isn’t a major bug or anything (and I’m sort of used to the weird emoji rendering), but I felt like sharing this here.
I feel like this probably should be a bug report since it affects most of Roblox Studio’s UI, but I haven’t tried to join the bug reporting group, and I don’t know what would technically keep Studio from displaying emoji correctly in these cases anyways.

I’m sure its a concept. I don’t think they’d use the same icon as “Archive.”

Strange because we definitely support unicode/emoji:
It may just be in the place name, for some reason. Definitely a bug! Do you have the ability to file bugs?
I had the team look into it really quick and it seems that specific emoji is problematic at the engine/font level (can repro in plain ole’ Luau UI). There may be others so we’ll get a conversation going with the engine team. In the meantime, many other emojis should work.

Sorry for the delay on responding here. We recently changed our crashes and hang handler to be it’s own process. So not related to the Start Page or anything to be worried about.

I tried displaying all of the colored heart emoji in a basic TextLabel and the newer pink, light blue, and grey hearts are affected.
I actually installed Roblox’s emoji font and tried displaying all of the hearts in Krita, and the same three hearts seem to be completely missing from Twemoji Mozilla, so I guess that’s the cause of this bug.
It really is a minor bug; I haven’t tried requesting to join the bug reporting group, but I’ve heard about it and should probably try to join it.

Can you confirm you’re on version 646? If yes,. feel free to DM logs.
We don’t have any known issues with fully stuck loading currently. We will be releasing quicker loading and caching soon.

May this just be Roblox api? I was going thru logs and the one api seems to just time out every time
Reply to the staff member here:
They can deal with this particular issue, it’s a backend API problem

Love this change but I do feel like there’s a lot of empty space on the side bar that should be filled.
