Description
I love the ability to resume an activity from the Home View...
The resume-by-default option is less useful, however, because there is no way to create a new instance.

Could the start icon be a white on black activity icon as per Eben's original designs? Here's his example for write:

I also wonder if 'New' would have been a better word than 'Start' when I first saw it I was thinking 'start what? The default (which would be the last journal entry)'... but this one is a string change so would need more eyeballs to make a call.

I interpreted start to me start the activity I had opened previously.

A separate entry using the uncolored icon is a good alternative.

- Milestone changed from Unspecified by Release Team to 0.86
- Owner changed from marcopg to tomeu
- Status changed from new to assigned
Changed to the uncolored icon in http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/sugar/repos/mainline/commits/e7cd6a2a
Moving this ticket to 0.86 where we'll change the string.

Just wanted to ping on this old string change recommendation for "New" instead of "Start" in the Home views Activity palette (favourite and list).

I thought it was "Start new"?

The "Start" palette option is supposed to do that. How could we make it clearer?
