Priority: medium
Bug ID: 61174
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: Add an option to prevent logging of Recent Documents
List; enhance management of the list
Severity: enhancement
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Windows (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: x86 (IA32)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 3.6.4.3 release
Component: UI
Product: LibreOffice
1. MUST HAVE (minimum requirement):
For privacy reasons, e.g. on shared PCs/accounts, etc, it would be good to have
the following option:
- A checkbox "Clear Recently Used Documents on Exit" to prevent remembering of
the recently used documents (to prevent them to appear in File > Recently Used
Documents) beyond the current LibreOffice session.
2. ADDITIONAL (nice to also have):
- A button "Clear the List" (in the same window as in the point 1 above, or
better: at the end of the "Recently Used Documents" list, for a faster and a
more easy to find access), for an immediate clearing of the list.
3. IDEAL (the dream implementation):
Implement a more enhanced management of the recently used documents list,
similarly to what is done by, e.g., the "PDF-XChange Viewer" and others:
a) Each item in File > Recently Used Documents list could have on its right:
- A pin (possible tooltip: “Pin this document to the Recently Used Documents
list (deny removal when total number of items in the list exceeds the limit”)).
- An “x” to remove the item from the list
b) File > Recently Used Documents could show "Manage the List" link at the end
of the list (instead or additionally to the "Clear the List in point 2 above),
which takes the user to the configuration of the point 1 above.
c) The list configuration could offer following configuration possibilities
(defaults correspond to current behavior):
- A checkbox "Restore last session when application starts" (to re-open
documents which were opened on closure of LibreOffice (default: unchecked)
- A text field "Maximum items in the list" (i.e. the length of the list;
default: 10)
- A checkbox "Show items of current application only" (would show only files
which can be opened by the Writer, if File > Recently Used Documents is opened
in Writer; and respective in all other applications; default: unchecked). See
also bug 56696.
- A checkbox “Move all pinned items to the top of the list” (default:
unchecked)
- A checkbox “Ask before removing the items from the list” (default: checked)
- The checkbox "Clear Recently Used Documents on Exit" of the point 1 above
(default: unchecked)
- A checkbox “Remove broken or non-existent items on start-up. Note: this may
increase start-up time.” (Default: unchecked)
- A button to clear the list
