[Libreoffice-ux-advise] StartCenter on OSX does not display all available document shortcuts

2015-06-18 Thread Alexander Thurgood
Gi all, Is there any logical reason why the StartCenter does not by default display all of the document shortcut icons on the lefthand side ? On master, with OSX 10.10.3, the StartCenter opens, with a default size approximately 2/3 that of my screen 1360x768 LG Flatron W1946 monitor. At this
