I& #39;ve created four or five new projects in Visual Studio this weekend. *Every single time* I& #39;ve typed the name of the new project into the textbox in the top right before remembering that& #39;s a template filter. Every time.

I& #39;ve tweeted about this before, I know, but it bears repeating. I& #39;m partly frustrated by Microsoft for a user interface which invites incorrect behaviour - but at least equally frustrated with myself for apparently being incapable of learning to use it properly.

Possibly the weirdest part of this is that it makes perfect logical sense to have one dialog focused on finding the template, then another creating the project. I wonder whether I wouldn& #39;t have a problem if I hadn& #39;t used earlier versions of VS which used a single dialog.

Would be fascinated to hear if engineers working on Visual Studio itself make the same mistake. (I know from responses to previous tweets that I& #39;m far from alone in this.)

I should probably add a little explicit humility here. I& #39;m terrible at UI design. If *I& #39;d* designed the "new project" wizard, I& #39;m certain it would be far worse. I& #39;m also not suggesting a concrete solution here (for the same reason). Just registering the problem.
