Description J22Gim 2024-04-15 12:59:42 UTC
Description:
When file open/save dialog is presented, the history (recent files) is lost after clicking on the down-arrow. 

Steps to Reproduce:
This is dialog/GUI specific so please note that I have the option "Use LibreOffice dialogs" enabled in Tools > Options.

1. Start your LO program (I tested with Calc and Writer, but assume it's the same for all components)
2. Give the command to open a file (but this also applies to the action of saving a file). For example I press CTRL+O 
3. A file open/save dialog is shown
4. At the right end of the path box (i.e., to the left of 'Servers' button) there is a down arrow which shows the history (i.e. recent files)
5. Click on the downward arrow: the history opens as a drop-down menu
6. Click again on the downward arrow: the drop-down box is closed
7. Click again on the downward arrow: 

Actual Results:
7. Click again on the downward arrow: the history is lost

Expected Results:
7. Click again on the downward arrow: the history is shown, just like step 5


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

Additional Info:
Note: I have the option "Use LibreOffice dialogs" enabled in Tools > Options.
