[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1629355] Re: Bad user experience: Missing "recent documents" in save dialogs
I would much prefer having the "Recently used" folder in "Save"/"Save as" dialog like in LibreOffice, Inkscape, Gimp. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1629355 Title: Bad user experience: Missing "recent documents" in save dialogs Status in evolution package in Ubuntu: Expired Bug description: Ubuntu 16.04, evolution-3.18.5.2-0ubuntu3.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1629355] Re: Bad user experience: Missing "recent documents" in save dialogs
Just had another look. So, my original statement that other gtk-3 apps show "Recent" for Save is probably wrong (also checked eog and evince). Not sure what made me believe that. Only gtk-2 apps do (e.g. gimp, inkscape, chromium, libreoffice, all checked under Ubuntu 16.04). Nevertheless, it's an inconsistency of the user experience. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1629355 Title: Bad user experience: Missing "recent documents" in save dialogs Status in evolution package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Ubuntu 16.04, evolution-3.18.5.2-0ubuntu3.

Can you give examples of apps that show 'Recent' in the Save dialog? I checked Text Editor (gedit) in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and it shows 'Recent' for Open but not for Save. ** Changed in: evolution (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1629355 Title: Bad user experience: Missing "recent documents" in save dialogs Status in evolution package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Ubuntu 16.04, evolution-3.18.5.2-0ubuntu3.
