Start Center
The so-called Start Center is a dialog window that is optionally displayed at startup and is meant as a simplified control panel for beginning your work. It allows to quickly open files, disks, memory modules, and folders as well as up to 255 recently edited documents (16 by default, left-hand list). These may be files, folders, logical drives or physical disks. When opened again, WinHex restores the last cursor position, the scrolling position, and the block (if defined) of each document, unless the corresponding option is disabled.
From the Start Center you are also able to access projects and cases (right-hand top list). A project consists of one or more documents to edit (files or disks). It remembers the editing positions, the window sizes and positions and some display options. By saving a window arrangement as a project you can continue to work in several documents right where you left them, with a single click only. This is especially useful for recurring tasks. When you load a project, all currently opened windows are automatically closed first.
Besides, WinHex automatically saves the window arrangement from the end of a WinHex session as a project, and can re-create it next time at startup. Each project is stored in a .prj file. It can be deleted or renamed right within the Start Center (context menu or Del/F2 key).
Last not least, the Start Center is the place where to manage scripts. You may check, edit, create, rename, and delete scripts using the context menu. To execute a script, double-click it or single-click it and click the OK button.
