Description davidkacerek 2023-01-29 01:09:50 UTC
SUMMARY:
There's hardcoded "Recent documents" list in Okular accessible from the welcome window and menubar. If I want to get rid of the history I have to click "Forget All" or "Clear List" and do so continuously. I'd like the option to not create documents' history at all. I consider it a privacy necessity.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS:
Windows: Windows 10 x64

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Tested on Windows but it seems the feature might be present on GNU/linux where a full blown KDE Plasma et al. is running. I'm not sure whether the whole DE can be installed on Windows in a trivial way but on Windows I want to run Okular from the KDE suite only anyway. Haven't tested it on Linux yet but if the feature is not present there either I'd like to see that there too.

Thank you.
