Hello There is no info on the url of a recent document when you move the mouse on his icon in the new startcenter: - The tooltip displays only the name (but it is already below the icon) - Except databases, the name has no extension (sometimes difficult to know the type of document. Thumbnail not always sufficient to distinguish) - The complete url should be displayed in the tooltip (like the drop-down list of Open button in 4.1) and may be in a "status bar" at the bottom of the dialog. I *very* frequently work on documents with the same name contained in different folders... and it would also be useful to find where did I could save the document :) Regards Pierre-Yves
Not sure I agree with this. As I prefer a clean UI, I'd rather turn off all mouseovers for those files by default and offer an option to activate that. Displaying the file URL will display very long mouseover boxes that look ugly. I don't think that's a good route. Pierre: I'm not sure if having files with identical names is a good idea (even if those are in separate folders. Whenever doing a file search this will lead to very uninformative results. More thoughts on this?

I don't think that's a good route. There would be only one tip at a time. As I said this is *already* being used in the Open button (see UrlInToolTip.png screenshot ) > Pierre: I'm not sure if having files with identical names is a good idea > (even if those are in separate folders.

I would add that this request has been approved on the design list: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Start-Center-display-the-URL-of-the-recent-document-selected-td4079964.html
This change is already planned: http://go.mail-archive.com/qvh8hI_lOmb_A2ZwOtRezxFHa-A= I agree, it is important to be able to see the full name of the recent used files in the StartCenter. Best regards. JBF
