      Description

      In the first-time user developer experience analysis, test persons reported: Getting the project to run proved to be difficult, although doable.
      A large run-button is there, but it is situated in a position that is rarely scanned to. The run-button doesn’tchange into a stop-button when clicked.

      There is a reason that the Run button does not change to a Stop button, as the project may be started several times and the Stop button is located in the Application Output pane. 

      At least, we could have an idle animation in the run button (for new users) that after they have opened their first project, they can easily run it. 

      Another option would be to have an animated tutorial or even video, shown for the first time users. The tutorial/video should show, where to build, run, debug, get Help, open a project, get more examples.
