Hello Peter! I thought about this a little. I think to mix up both behaviours is not simple anymore for users. I dislike the implicity of the approach. For a new user it is not transperent that OpenOffice will take the recent document into account. Hmm. Have you ever used the URL field? Since

Okay, thats a shame. The Extension is as Pedro claims taken down. There is a reported working link in Bugzilla. The Bug is about getting a access to the wiki... I deleted the mail by accident, and I dont know which one it is ... sorry. Maybe later I check the online Archive. On 11.02.2017

Hi Peter, all However that is then not part of the recent Document list rework anymore, but an overhaul of the Open Item, where we also have to think about cloud working as you have pointed out. Yes, please! It is absurd that OpenOffice has been able to open documents in the cloud for a

Hello Peter! Thanks for your Brainstorm. I checked and if you select an Open Document option, and start to type a recent document its already autocompleting. Yes. But this autocompleteing works at your file system (this is good!) but not for the history. You are suggesting to replace it

Hello! I think the number of entrys should be configurable in the settings. If you thinking in this direction I have also a suggestion. I have the “Load URL” field visible inside the Standard tool bar. This have many advantages: 1. A very longer history. 2. AutoCompletion for URLs.
