I had been quite happy to find that the Recent Files picklist was extended to 100 under LO 5.2. However, when I reached the magic 100, instead of dropping off the last file when adding a fresh one to the list, the entire list was cleared. I have since found that org.openoffice.Office.Common.History.PickListSize was also automatically reset to 25, instead of staying at 100. I believe some of the offending code is at lines 2044ff here: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/20338/2/officecfg/registry/schema/org/openoffice/Office/Common.xcs I picked this up from https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74834#c11 Incidentally, I would be in favour of some of the ideas of Johnny M here: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61174 I would add that it would be nice to be able to remove a specific file from the list: I download quite a few files from the internet on spec, and sometimes find the file isn't quite what I had hoped, and so would like to discard it, rather than having it clog list entries. I noted that on resetting PickListSize (I chose 150, and set 200 files for the History.List), older entries in the history list were not actually picked up and included - only new additional files. I found the actual history list was 150 files, which were still present in the Histories:HistoryItem list.
My PickList size is 25 and History size is 100. This is after resetting my user profile. Can you really see the PickList size as 25 in the Expert options even after resetting your profile? With 5.3, this should be possible to check with Safe Mode https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile Win 7 Pro 64-bit Version: 5.4.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: 83e059af2203ec0cd15dea08cfa538555ba14bd7 CPU Threads: 4; OS Version: Windows 6.1; UI Render: default; TinderBox: Win-x86@42, Branch:master, Time: 2017-02-06_23:34:43 Locale: fi-FI (fi_FI); Calc: group
