Description Don 2023-09-07 14:56:56 UTC
Description:
There is no option in the macOS LibreOffice Dock Contextual Icon to clear the recently opened Documents. An option to clear this history must be added to LibreOffice as this is a security concern.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open LibreOffice.app on macOS
2. Open any LibreOffice document
3. Right-click on the LibreOffice icon in the Dock
4. You'll see a list of recent documents or LibreOffice setting windows recently opened.

Actual Results:
There is no listed option to clear this recent activity list

Expected Results:
macOS does not have any built in, or default option to clear in-app recent history, this option needs to be created by the third party app developers to clear this recent history listing.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
There are a number of reports of this bug on site with no resolution and LibreOffice developers are trying to say this is a Mac issue. It is not. this a contextual menu is missing a key function and is in violation of macOS privacy policies by not having an option to clear in-app contextual menu recent history. Please correct this.

This is already tracked in bug 147883, so I am marking as a duplicate.
Please comment there with the information about it being an issue on LibreOffice's side, and with your preferred solution.
Thank you!
