[QGIS-Developer] News panel?

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi, 

Hm - maybe there is a difference on "how you turn the news panel off". I
tried with a new empty profile and it is the same behaviour like on my
default profile. Once I press the little "x" icon on the top right of
the news panel, there is no way to turn it back on. 

On the other hand, if you go to "Settings" --> "Options" --> "General"
and use that option to toggle visibility of the News Panel, then I can
really turn it on and off as expected. 

So, the culprit seems to be the littel "x" Icon on the top right of the
News Panel. Once, you use, that, the news panel is gone for good. No
easy way to get it back.

fully agreed. Tim already prepared something, probably good to start
from that?
Cheers.
