Feature request: larger "hit area" for recent projects in the home window

Win 10

please add a larger hit area around each name of previous projects in the home window panel.

at the moment, the hit area where a mouse click works is a bit subtle, and it is unclear if a single click or double click is required, even if the mouse pointer changes. I find myself often frustrated by clicking on a prev project and it would not open because i was not precise enough to click the exact center.

I am sorry for the confusion, yes, the hit area is large (humongous).

I still need 2-3 clicks for one of them to register and open the project... kinda annoying, since everythimg else on this system has proper reaction time for single and double clicks...

I am also win10. For some time I have the same issue, but all I can say is that I think the first click sometimes does not work. I have not identified whether this has to do with panel focus or some other windows based issue.

 

I don't think it has to do with hit area, but I'll check this next time.

I'm total PC, and on both the destop and laptop, I just click the file name and the project or production opens. So I'm not replicating that problem.

Nope: hover over and click.

You mean Recent....

The entire highlighted line is active.

Even if I click once on the text Premiere Pro Project in the Kind column, it opens the project.
