Version: (using KDE KDE 3.2.1) Installed from: RedHat RPMs It should be possible to set the number of documents shown in the "Recent documents" menu. Or if there is already such a setting, then it is very well hidden... Others have suggested that one can set document types are saved (Bug 54627 and bug 72665) or that they are sorted into submenus (bug 70867) - this could be combined with my suggestion leading to the following: Make it possible to set the maximum number of documents per type, e.g.: show up to 5 text documents show up to 3 web sites show up to 0 mp3 files (i.e. ignore MP3) Thanks Stephan

I did some research on this topic and I found this on http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-core-devel&m=94040985829867 > To configure it edit [RecentDocuments] in kdeglobals. The keys are: > UseRecent=bool #enables or disables recent menu support (default true) > MaxEntries=num #maximum recent documents (default ten) I have not tested it, because I do not use this feature, but maybe it works ;)
Thanks for the suggestion. But I tried it and it does not seem to work, at least with kde 3.5.8 : I added in kdeglobals : --------- [RecentDocuments] UseRecent=true MaxEntries=20 ------------ Not only it did not work, but it broke the recent documents management. Maybe, some field names have been changed, since the mentioned link http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-core-devel&m=94040985829867 is quite old (1999 ?
It would be nice to have this feature in Kickoff in 4.x
Kicker is currently unmaintained, you can look to your distribution for help, however.
Allow the user to configure the number of recent documents that Krita remembers. Settings / Configure Krita / General / Miscellaneous / Recent Documents Or perhaps better Settings / Configure Krita / General / Sessions / Recent Documents This would affect the file menu and the initial work space which also shows recent documents when none are loaded. This is possible in KDE applications, as the Kate editor allows the user to define the number of recent documents.
