Enable logging on the opening screen

Hello! I think that most business users always use logging. Unfortunately sometimes we forget to turn it on under Project Settings / Misc. Could you put a checkbox in the "New project on disk" section of the opening screen to enable logging? When the user checks it, a file with the same name as the burp file is created in the same directory, with a log extension containing all HTTP requests and responses.

Thanks for your suggestion. We've made the Logger tab prominent in the UI - https://portswigger.net/burp/documentation/desktop/tools/logger The additional logging function you have discussed can take up large amounts of disc space. For this reason, we are unlikely to add this option to the opening screen.

OK, thanks for your response.
