One work around is to have a folder with symlinks to documents so that hey can be opened from a file browser any time without searching so much. I have tried and I get stuck (or bored) because of the fact that with every new release of LibreOffice it ships with the release version appended to the name, which means I have to edit multiple menu entries (Linux Openbox desktop) or create an executable script in /usr/bin which points to Libreoffice[n], which needs editing also with each new update. /usr/bin/libreoffice #!/bin/bash libreoffice7.1 --writer $@ I don't think we want to have a file explorer inside LibreOffice -1 from me In bug 143495 a similar request takes the start center as basis. Can we make your request a duplicate? A few thoughts: opening multiple files and having favorites sounds like a desirable feature. The toolbar button with recent files wouldn't be a good place, another sidebar deck might be. But we do have the start center for this purpose and reload the previously opened files automatically sounds even better. Rather than bug 143495 (for reopen/restore of multiple documents) this is more a dupe of bug 77590 which could be exposed in an additional SB deck--or some other view toggle to expose the MRU thumbnail views--marked it such. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 77590 *** |
