            Bug ID: 105576
           Summary: Recent Documents picklist size reset to 25 and list
                    emptied on reaching 100 files
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: pnet...@f2s.com

I had been quite happy to find that the Recent Files picklist was extended to
100 under LO 5.2.  However, when I reached the magic 100, instead of dropping
off the last file when adding a fresh one to the list, the entire list was
cleared. I have since found that
org.openoffice.Office.Common.History.PickListSize was also automatically reset
to 25, instead of staying at 100.

I believe some of the offending code is at lines 2044ff here:

I picked this up from
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74834#c11 

Incidentally, I would be in favour of some of the ideas of Johnny M here:
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61174

I would add that it would be nice to be able to remove a specific file from the
list: I download quite a few files from the internet on spec, and sometimes
find the file isn't quite what I had hoped, and so would like to discard it,
rather than having it clog list entries.

I noted that on resetting PickListSize (I chose 150, and set 200 files for the
History.List), older entries in the history list were not actually picked up
and included - only new additional files.  I found the actual history list was
150 files, which were still present in the Histories:HistoryItem list.
