Can we lose the RIDICULOUS startup window for Alteryx Applications?

In regards to the little ALTERYX box that pops up every time I run my YXWZ file..

This is COMPLETELY ANNOYING!  I don't want to click the dang thing every time to close it.  It has ZERO VALUE.  I already know its ALTERYX.  SO LETS LOSE THIS WASTED STEP!  I have to run this many times when testing and for production, WHY DO I HAVE TO CLICK IT EVERY SINGLE TIME TO CLOSE IT!

 

I have a second suggestion... I tried to enter this suggestion, AND I KEEP GETTING A SNAFU because the IDEA LABELS feature in your submit tool.  LOSE IT or make it so I don't have to fill it in.  I get you want to somehow CATEGORIZE, but, if you can't come up with something useful, I am not a mind reader and I don't have time to sit here and figure out WHAT MIGHT BE THE MAGIC WORD that might be associated with my idea.  GIMME A BREAK!

 

Thanks

Hi @Inactive User,

 

Have you tried un-checking the 'show getting started window' in options > user settings? This should prevent the window from popping up.

 

We use the labels/categories to ensure your feedback is being routed to the appropriate product management team(s) as soon as you submit it.  If there is any clarification we can provide around the categories to make it easier to use please let me know.

 

Thanks,
