Description Yan Pas 2015-12-15 14:59:17 UTC 
For example if I open new window of Calc application and press an arrow of buttuon OPEN I see dropdown list of latest 15 documents. Currently these documents are from different apps (Writer, Impress, Calc, Draw etc.)

But I think this list, for example for calc, should contain only files which correspod to calc: xls, xlsx, ods, tsv... 
For Writer: odt, doc, rtf ...
Comment 1 Regina Henschel 2015-12-15 15:14:09 UTC 
I disagree. It is an advantage, that you can easily access other document formats. I often need to open a Draw document to copy a drawing to Writer, or open a Calc document to copy a part of the calculation to Writer, or want to see a text in a Writer document side-by-side to a Calc document or to a presentation.
Comment 2 Yan Pas 2015-12-15 15:24:51 UTC 
OK, I see your point. I suggest compromiss option: what about just adding icons for the docs in this list. Writer icon for text files, Green calc icon for csvs and spreadsheets etc. ?
