Written by Steve Patterson.In this Photoshop tutorial, we'll learn all about the new Start screen and Recent Files panel that were first introduced to Photoshop CC in the November 2015 Creative Cloud updates.No matter what we plan on doing with Photoshop, the first step is always the same; we either open an existing image or document to work on, or we create a brand new document from scratch. In the latest version of Photoshop CC, Adobe has made this first step easier and more intuitive by introducing a new Start screen as well as a new Recent Files panel.The Start screen gives us quick access to our most recently-opened files, along with options for opening other files, creating new documents, and more. It appears every time we launch Photoshop and whenever we close out of a document (with no other documents still open on the screen). The Recent Files panel offers many of the same options as the Start screen but without needing to close out of the document. Let's see how they work.The New Start ScreenIf you've been using Photoshop for a while, including earlier versions of Photoshop CC, the new Start screen may seem a bit confusing at first, not because of what you're seeing but rather for what you're not seeing. Traditionally when opening Photoshop, we've been greeted by the familiar Tools panel along the left and a larger column of panels along the right.
The new Start screen in Photoshop CC 2015.Since the Start screen effectively changes the layout of Photoshop's interface, Adobe has saved it as a new workspace. You'll find it already selected in the Workspace option in the upper right of the screen. As I mentioned, Photoshop now switches by default to this new Start workspace each time we launch Photoshop and whenever we close out of a document (as long as there are no other documents still open). We'll learn how to change this default behavior a bit later.
Doco can match the image size of multiple documents to the size of the current document in a click of a button. No need for complicated actions and batch processes. Select multiple documents and click the merge button. Doco will automatically merge all documents to the current document.
Back to the Start workspace.Shortcodes, Actions and Filters Plugin: Error in shortcode The Recent Files ListLet's take a closer look at what the Start screen has to offer. Along the bottom of the Start screen is a collection of cards you can click on to learn more about what's new in Photoshop, view various tutorials, add free assets to your Creative Cloud libraries, and more. There's also a convenient search box for finding royalty-free stock images and graphics from Adobe Stock (Adobe's new stock image service).But the main feature of the new Start screen is its Recent Files list, which displays a list of recently-opened images and documents. Depending on the number of files in the list, you may need to use the scroll bar along the right of the list to scroll through it. Back to the Recent Files list.
Turning The Start Screen On And OffPhotoshop's new Start screen is a handy feature, but if you don't want to see it, you can tell Photoshop not to display the Start screen using a new option found in the Preferences. To get to the Preferences, on a Windows PC, go up to the Edit menu at the top of the screen, choose Preferences way down at the bottom of the list, and then choose General. On a Mac, go up to the Photoshop menu, choose Preferences, and then choose General.

By default, the Recent Files panel is turned off, so let's keep it off for a moment and see how things have traditionally worked without it. I'll re-open my document by once again clicking on its thumbnail in the Start screen. Choosing File Open normally opens the File Explorer (Win) or Finder (Mac).I'm going to simply cancel out of that window so we can see how the new Recent Files panel works.
As I mentioned, by default the Recent Files panel is turned off. To turn it on, all we need to do is enable it in Photoshop's Preferences. To get to the Preferences, once again go to Edit Preferences General (Win) / Photoshop Preferences General (Mac). Then, look for the new option that says Show 'Recent Files' Workspace When Opening a File.
You'll find it directly below the new 'Show 'Start' Workspace' option that we looked at a moment ago. Select the option by clicking inside its checkbox.
