Recent Documents Entry Point - Increase number of documents listed

Hi there,
Does anyone know how to increase the number of documents that get listed in the "recent documents" entry point. It seems to be set to a default of 5, and I would like it to be more.
Thanks,
Tom

So thats the reason, probably you are not using ConsumerExplorer Layout
As the first step then, we need to know then which Layout is been used for this.
The easiest way is to enable debug settings for your user id.
TO enable debug settings,
Goto->System Administration->KNowledge Management->Content Management->
User Interface->(Advanced Mode)->Debugging settings->WDFProxy->
Enable Rendering Information
Give your portal id in the UI Superusers list.
After this, on every KM Navigation iView you will get a link called Rendering Information on the top.
This link will help you in finding out which layout is being used for any KM Nav iView.
After finding that, we need to modify the collection renderer applied to this Layout.

Printed doc topics listed in WinXP Recent Documents list

I recently upgraded to RoboHelp 9 from 7. I generated a printed doc and each topic is listed in the Recent Documents list in Windows XP, as follows:
The file names all begin with $HtmlDoc_Chapter_... By the way, these files can't be found once you click one of the names. It looks like some temporary files made during generation. The point is, I don't want them in my Recent Documents list. How can I prevent this from happening?
Thank you.

Am I right in thinking you are generating a Master Document and Sub Documents?
The problem here is that RoboHelp has to create a number of temporary documents in the process and Word notes any documents created. I doubt that RoboHelp can stop Word doing what it is set up to do. There is no interface option so pPlease follow this link and report it as a bug or feature request, depending on your point of view.

How can I clear the recent document list on the welcome page?

Have some confidential docs that I don't want to appear when the program is launched. How can I clear the recent document list on the welcome page and the "open recent" list? thx

It's not an option in the prefs. It's a hidden file that makes up part of the preference set (as far as I know, most, or all of the seetings you can adjust inside ID's prefences dialog are actually saved in the other half of the set, InDesign Defaults). For more information, see Replace Your Preferences

Missing recent documents in TextEdit/Preview - File

This issue happened after merging a new Tiger OS with an encrypted home directory (File Vault). I can see my recent docs and apps if I switch them on within the System Preferences. Other apps like BBEdit or Microsoft Excel for example are tracking my recent docs also correctly. But the menu recent documents in the applications TextEdit and Preview remain empty independet how many docs I open and save. I therefore tried another user with the same OS without File Vault and everything behaves like normal. If I make a new document within TextEdit and do save it I can see it in the menu File as recently opened documents. Does anybody have an idea? Please HELP!
Mac Pro Mac OS X (10.4.8) 5GB RAM

The recent documents lists for TextEdit and Preview are contained within their respective preferences files. Try deleting these files and see if that solves the problem:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.TextEdit.plist
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Preview.plist
(Where the "~/" is your home directory.)

Adobe Reader LE 1.5 and Deleting Recent Documents

On my E71, I am having difficulty deleting PDFs from the Reader's recent document list. There is no option to remove them, and the files don't seem to be stored anywhere in the filesystem that I can get to via Bluetooth or the File Manager.
Any ideas? I hate to have my memory occupied by documents that I'll never need again.
Thanks, all!

This is the rare annoying thing i found on N73 too the recent documents list in Adobe reader and real player never gets cleared up initially i found it to happen when i viewd a pdf file directly from the email instead of downloading it to my mobile later that was not the case it remained permanently there for all the files irrespective of viewing it online or storing it to the device. Only way to clear that up is to do a format using *#7370# AFAIK(which will erase all ur phone data) it is a silly thing to do for filename staying in the recent viewed list so i live with it

How clear Recent Documents?

How do you clear the recent documents list in the welcome
screen of Fireworks CS3?
I want to clear it out, not turn it off or anything.

The only way I can think of is by deleting the Fireworks
Preferences
text file. That will clear every thing in Fireworks memory,
but it will
also remove any customizations you've made to the UI, and
reset all the
program defaults.

Recent Documents Forgotten

Running CS6 on XP SP3 and ever since daylight saving finished on the east coast of Australia (nearly a week ago) every morning on startup InDesign asks if I wish to remember the recent documents list.
Can anyone tell me how I can avoid this box popping up every time InDesign is launched.

Try trashing the prefs (or at least the InDesign SavedData file, where th list is stored -- see Replace Your Preferences), but keep in mind this will remove the current recent list and it need to be rebuilt as you work.

Change icons for entry points under Documents.

Hi all,
I am working on EP 7.0.
I want to change the images for the entry points like Public docs, Private Docs, Favorites under Documents.
I have uploaded the images under Content Admin->KM Content->root > etc > public > mimes > images > entrypoints but the images that i have uploaded are of .jpg format.
I have been through a couple of threads and found that it has to a .img format if the logo has to reflect and also the names displayed in the portal and that of the logo has to be the same.
1. Is it mandatory that the image to be in .img format?
2. If so how can I make a .jpg to .img.
I tried uploading a .jpg and changed the name of favorites but the image is not reflected.
Any help in this regard will be appreciated.
Regards,
Sandeep

Kind regards,

Easy question - how to increase number of recent files in menu?

This is for CS5 if it matters.
I'm an infrequent Illustrator user (at best) but I have what I hope is an easy question: I want to increase number of recent files showing in the menu.
I can't find a preferece to set such as in PS and almost every other application on the face of the earth. I've tried to reset the preferences file (start Illustrator with ctrl-alt-shift held down) but I'm stuck at 4 files, which I assume is the anemic default option.
Is there an easy way to do this that Adobe has hidded somewhere? As expected, it can't be found in the help, I can't find it on the forums, or even on the net, but I do know it can be done because I can see other installs showing lots of files in the list.
thanks for any help.

This might be because of a new feature that you can turn off for each object, and alltogether. When you create a new document at the bottom, make sure 'Align New Objects to Pixel Grid' is unchecked. After you have created a new file, you can still go into the 'TRANSFORM' palette (SHIFT+8), use the little right top menu, and make sure 'Align New Objects to Pixel Grid' is unchecked. And if you want to get fancy with each object; you can select an object, and look at the 'TRANSFORM' palette at the bottom is a place to uncheck the 'Align to Pixel Grid' at your disposall.
Before I found this, it ruined my week.

Repair for missing "open recent" documents option in my File Menu?

Can someone suggest how to repair a missing "open recent" documents option in my File Menu? I'm using CS5 Indesign.
There's no option for it greyed out or otherwise. It originally had dissappeared while using CS4. I gave up on it. Installed CS5 and hoped it would come back: nada. I did the Ctrl-Alt-Shift thing and deleted prefs file: Still no recent docs option. VERY IRRITATING.
There's got to be a way. But I'm not informed enough. Help, please?

This is easily fixed...took me a while to find out how.
Go into Preferences, click on File Handling...you will then see a page with 'Saving InDesign Files' in the middle section (See attached screen grab). You'll see a box next to 'Number of Recent Items to Display' which I'm assuming will be '0'...change this to any number up to 99. Click OK. Close InDesign. Reopen InDesign...Open a file, close the file...you will now see the 'Open Recent' link when you click on file.
Problem solved.

Cs4 Recent documents file path length?

This is bugging me. Why, under Recent Documents, do some files have the entire file path starting with the hard drive name > user name > ad nauseum and other files have just the document name?
Is it because I opened some within the program and the others from the finder? (I open and close so many, I never keep track)
Apparently there is no preference option to chose one format over the other.
Annoying, that's all.

One idea -- don't know if this fits your situation. On other Adobe programs I have seen this when the same document name was opened from different folders. For example if I had a file DocA that was only opened from one folder it would appear in the list as DocA with no path; but if I had opened a file named DocB from folder 10 then later from folder 12, I would see two entries with paths showing those folders.

File Menu Recent Documents

Is there a way to change the number of Recent Documents that appear via the File Menu > Recent Documents item? Thanks.

Thanks. It executed, but the menu didn't change. I wonder if the property name changed since the macro was written. Does anybody know the current StarOffice8 property name that controls this feature?

"Recent Documents" stack appeared today... from where?

On my MacBook Pro, a new stack called "Recent Documents" appeared this morning. I like it, but where did it come from? Right-clicking on it gives me options to make it Recent Apps or Recent Servers, or Favorite Volumes or Favorite Items.
There is no folder on my Mac with that name. How did it get there? And if I accidentally poof it, how will I ever get it back?
Daru

There is no folder. It is an undocumented feature of the Dock that can be activated by the Teminal command, or by a third party utility that runs that command, or simply does what the command does, to wit, adds a certain bit to the Dock's plist file. I suppose it is related to Smart Folders, which also don't exist as actual entities, but only as snippets of code. No actual folders are involved, just a tiny bit of code that in effect tells part of the system to do certain things. The misnamed Smart Folders tell the Finder to open a window and display a list of items matching the criteria in the code snippet. The same is true for the Recent Items stack, except in this case the Dock has an entry in its plist file that tells it to use its stacks ability to display recent items.

I am trying to open a recent document in Pages. It says I need a newer version of Pages to open it. When I try to install newer versionit says I already have pages and this computer (Mac) and says to go to software update. There is no update being shown.

I am trying to open a recent document in Pages. It says I need a newer version of pages to open document. When I go to install pages it says I already have on this computer and to check software updates. There are no updates showing. Now what?? I can't open any of my documents.

you need a newer version of pages to open this document

When I try to open a recent document I get the following message "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document." I have downloaded version Pages version 5.2.2 and the app store confirms this, but my Pages About reports that I am using 4.3

When I try to open a recent document I get the following message "You need a newer version of Pages to open this document." I have downloaded version Pages version 5.2.2 and the app store confirms this (and won't let me download it again), but my Pages About reports that I am using 4.3

Here is the solution that I received from the chat line.
When you update applications like Pages it usually keeps both versions on the computer. So what most likely happened is it didn’t put the new version on your dock. So to fix this, open a finder window. And go into applications which should be listed on the left. Scroll down and you will see Pages listed in here. And the icon should look different. You can drag that icon down onto your dock.Open that and you then can access your documents
