Narsin, * Instead of using the History Master extension suggested by Pedro, you can edit your user profile directly, or use the Tools -> Options -> Advanced: "Expert Configuration" dialog.
The stanzas are recorded in the org.openoffice.Office.Common.History preferences Use the search bar (you land there on opening) search for property "PickListSize". Default value will be 25. Edit and change to 0. And at 5.2.0 we've changed the button name on the Advanced panel to "Open Expert Configuration" and an additional control of "RecentDocsThumbnail", default will be "true" edit and change to "false" The enhancement was done for tdf#74834 - CONFIGURATION: Option to disable documents thumbnails in the Start Center <http://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74834> Stuart =-=-= Notes for Assistive Technology tools users: Just checked and in NVDA on Windows the builds are missing accessible events for fields on the table rows. Fortunately the sequence is consistent. 1. Search -- for entry "picklistsize" 2. Tab -- onto the Search button 3. Tab -- into the table where NVDA will sound "'org.openoffice.Office.Common', selected row 0, column 'Preference Name' 4. Cursor Down -- onto the History:PickListSize stanza -- where NVDA will sound "cell row 1, column 'Preference Name' 5. Alt+E (for edit) -- opens the value edit dialog -- and NVDA will sound "Name dialog, edit, 25" 6. delete 25, enter text 0 7. Tab onto Help, then Tab onto OK button 8. Enter on OK button to write the new value 9. which will close name dialog and move focus to Expert Configuration Edit button sounded by NVDA 10. Tab onto Reset, then Tab onto OK button 11. Enter on OK button to exit Expert Configuration 12. Restart LibreOffice to apply new setting to user configuration. The Recent Documents list will be cleared, and StartCenter thumbnail view will be empty. Do the same search and edit from 5.2.0 onward to change the RecentDocsThumbnail boolean value, and the thumbnails will not be created at all-regardless of the picklist size. In the startcenter, instead of a thumbnail of the page of the document you get an icon of the document type and the filename as a label. Unfortunately for boolean the Alt+E just toggles the true/false values. Keep in mind that if you need to reset things you will need to delete your user profile and it will then rebuild with defaults on next LibreOffice start. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/a-question-about-libreoffice-and-my-recent-documents-tp4182459p4182483.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
