Description Jarosław Staniek 2014-08-13 20:47:32 UTC
Kexi 2 has a new Welcome screen instead of a modal dialog. These changes broke the --skip-startup-dialog, which says:

Skip displaying startup dialog window.
If there is no project name specified to open,
an empty application window will appear.

It should work again.

Comment 2 Jarosław Staniek 2015-02-03 08:40:54 UTC
Resolved by removing the option completely. It was not functioning for a long time and the nature of option suggest it's not used in scripts that call 'kexi' command for example.
Comment 3 Jarosław Staniek 2015-02-03 08:42:21 UTC
In the same step configuration option has been removed as well (from kexirc):

[Startup]
ShowStartupDialog=[bool]
