Details

The top of the following capture shows how it looks now, the bottom shows how it looks after this patch is applied:  Because the File / New item itself creates a new blend using the "General" template, you avoid the awkward submenu selection for the most-used case. The template are properly identified as such. And there is an item to install new templates in a very obvious place, rather than on the (hidden) app menu.

The intent here was very much to put 2D Animation, VFX and Video Editing at the same level as General. |
