             Bug #: 42295
           Summary: File > Recent Documents command lists ALL file types,
                    not just the relevant file type
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.3.2 release
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: UI
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


Hi,

When I am in a LibO application (e.g. Calc) and choose File > Recent Documents,
the list presented is of ALL the data file types (e.g. Writer.doc  Impress.ppt 
Base.mdb etc.) and not just the recent RELEVANT ones (e.g. Calc.xls  Budget.xls
).

I have searched and searched, and can not find out how to turn this
all-mixed-up-together "feature" OFF.

It is illogical and disadvantageous to me, even though others argue that there
are benefits to it.  My chances of finding the recent relevant data file that I
need are reduced to about 1/5...  

i.e.  10 files / ( Calc's + Base's + Impress's + Writer's + Draw's ) = Only 2
probably relevant files

If this "feature" can't be removed, or disabled by the user, then please
increase the Recent Documents list size to 50, so that users can at least have
the same benefit that MicroSloth Office provides.

Thanks very much,

Carl Turney, Melbourne, Australia
