Recently Used Workbook list

Hello,
Can anyone tell me why my "Recently Used Workbook" list is empty in relational Discoverer 10g. We are using version 10.1.2.0.2. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
Can anyone tell me why my "Recently Used Workbook"
list is empty in relational Discoverer 10g. We are
using version 10.1.2.0.2. Any assistance would be
greatly appreciated.
This is a BUG in Discoverer but there is a workaround.
Edit the $ORACLE_HOME/discoverer/.reg_key.dc file and find this location:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\WebDisco 10\Default\Application]
Under this, put this:
"MRU List Length"=D4:4:05,00,00,00
It should be put just before this line:
"MRUEnabled"=D4:4:01,00,00,00
The MRU Enabled is in the Pref.txt file but the length of this list is default to 0 and it is not in the pref.txt. Each user can change their MRU List Length but that it is at the user level, not the server level. By adding the MRU List Length as I have shown above, all users will default to showing the last 5 Workbooks.

Disable recently used documents list in Acrobat X?

Anyone know if there is a way to disable recently used documents list in Acrobat X?

You can reduce the file count to 1 (under Preferences) but cannot turn it off completely.
For info on clearing the list manually, see this post:

How do I edit the Screen Sharing 'Most Recently Used' files list ?

I have recently added a mac mini to the network at home, and will be using this as a headless device. I am connecting remotely (using screen sharing) which works well. I have set the Sceeen Sharing icon to remain permanently visible on the dock, ad by right clicking, I get a list of the most recently used shares.
The trouble is, that some of theses shares no longer exist, and tghere is also some duplication.
I would like to edit this list, but cannot find out how to do it.
Can anyone help please ?
Thanks
Geoff
PS - The same principle applies to a number of other programs that retaim n MRU lst on their dock icon - how can these be edited.

This doesn't apply to me anymore.

Most Recent Used File List

Hi,
Does anyone know how to create List of most recent used files and display it in the main menu?
Has anyone done that?
Currently, I am opening one file at the time and I have the last
path of opened file.
thanx !

You could recurse over the file system, creating a bunch of File objects, which you'd stick into a List. Then create a comparator that sorts the objects by File.lastModified() value, descending.
Then you'd have a sorted list, from which you could easily take the N most recent files.
Of course, the recursing would take a while. You may want to put creation and/or updating of this list, into a low priority thread.

Most Recent Used File List in Menus

Offhand, you'll have to do it the hard way. I don't think Swing or Awt provide a default JMenuItem(), MenuItem() that does the file list. Now that you mention it, it does seem like an interesting project to do.
You essentially need an array of the files, and for each file, create the associated menu entry, as in:
String entryName = files[ i ];
if ( entryName.length > 10 ) {
entryName = entryName.subString( 0, 10 );
JMenuItem entry = new JMenuItem( i + ". " + entryName );
...and define the event listeners however appropriate for your application.

Font Panel - Recently Used Fonts

Hi, since another post with this same title is archived, I'm going to give this a bump. The issue is that the Recently Used fonts list on my machine is HUGE and completely useless since many of the items in the list appear to be blank. Is there a way to clear this list so it can start fresh? I've tried clearing the system font cache and it doesn't affect this list.
Thanks, Matt

I upload a podcast each week using Podcast Maker. When I search the iTunes Store to determine if the most recent one is listed all the podcasts are in random order. This week's is #14; last week's is #1. Any ideas how to correct this? The odd thing is that when you try to subscribe to the podcasts, they are listed in the proper order.

Many thanks.
With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:
Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
(If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

How often does the Most Recently Used list get saved?

Has anyone ever done the analysis to see what triggers the SAVE of the MRU list to table PS_PT_PORTAL_MRU?
I'm about to do this tracing work and wanted to see if anyone else had before I start.
Graham

Graham,
I haven't done a trace, but I would infer from the description in the "Using PeopleSoft Applications" Peoplebook--Using the Recently Used Menu--that the changes are saved when a users logs out. If they close the browser without logging out or the session times out, then the changes aren't saved. It also says that entries are added to the list when you leave a component, but they are probably cached somewhere--probably in memory but maybe in a cookie, or a temp table.
I'll be interested to see what your trace uncovers!
Regards,
Bob
EDIT - I did a quick test, and I don't see the behavior described in PeopleBooks. I saw changes in the MRU table without logging out, and they didn't get rolled back. Maybe there was a patch that changed the original behavior.

[Solved] How to list recently used windows?

I like the Unity feature where a key binding either opens or focuses an application window. With KDE I can define a keyboard shortcut which, for example, performs
wmctrl -xa emacs.Emacs || emacs
However, I'd like it to focus on the last focused window, not the first opened window. Is there a command to list all windows in the order they were recently used? (Clearly the Task Switcher gets this information from somewhere.)

The command I was looking for is
xprop -root | grep "^_NET_CLIENT_LIST_STACKING"
If anyone is interested, this script
#!/bin/bash
app=$1
workspace=$(wmctrl -d | grep '\*' | cut -d ' ' -f1)
win_list=$(wmctrl -lx | grep $app | grep " $workspace " | awk '{print $1}')
IDs=$(xprop -root|grep "^_NET_CLIENT_LIST_STACKING" | tr "," " ")
IDs=(${IDs##*#})
for (( idx=${#IDs[@]}-1 ; idx>=0 ; idx-- )) ; do
for i in $win_list; do
if [ $((i)) = $((IDs[idx])) ]; then
wmctrl -ia $i
exit 0
fi
done
done
exit 1
in conjunction with the key binding
the_above_script.sh emacs.Emacs || emacs
produces the correct Unity behavior. (How to mark this thread solved?)
EDIT: I modified the script a little bit. It turns out wmctrl and xprop use slightly different formats for displaying hexadecimal numbers.

How to deactivate the Most Recently Used List in Adobe Reader?

Hello,
how can I deactivate the "feature" of last used file list.
In our firm it is not alowd to see which document was used last time on a computer/login.
A sheduled erase at the registry is not a functional way to deal with the problem.
s. Peter

You can't COMPLETELY remove it, but you can reduce it to one (1) item. Under Preferences>Documents
1 is the minimum and 10 is the maximum. Hard coded, no way to expand or reduce these limits.
The ONLY other option is to disable the "welcome screen" altogether under Preferences>General

Facetime app appearing in "recently used" list even though I didn't use or open it recently.

When I double click the "Home" button on my iPhone 4, sometimes Facetime will appear as a "recently used" app even if I hadn't opened it recently or recieved a Facetime call. Is this normal behavior? Thanks.

Known issue, See:

this issue maybe fixed in beta/ nightly, you should try it

Adobe Acrobat 6 & 8 Standard Removing Recently Used Menu

Hi all
Was wondering if anyone could help. I have the need to set the most recently used list within both adobe acrobat 6 and 8 standard to 0. due to helping with a configuration that has as much security as possible.
I had found that you can hide menu items buy using a hidemenu.js located on this site. http://blog.stealthpuppy.com/deployment/deploying-adobe-reader-81. and having the following entries in it
app.hideMenuItem("endRecentFileGroup");
app.hideMenuItem("RecentFile1");
but it does seem to do what i need it too. i know that you can only set within the preference that you can only set the recently used list to 1 but i would like it set to 0
has any one got any idea or tips on doing this anything would be helpful
Many Thanks

What does it do, then?
You should create a folder-level script (place it in the Javascripts folder of Acrobat) with something like this:
for (i=1; i<=5; i++) app.hideMenuItem("RecentFile"+i);
Change the number "5" to the number of items you have displayed. If there's only one, then this is enough:
app.hideMenuItem("RecentFile1");
That would hide all the recently opened files (it might take a couple of seconds from the moment the application opens until they disappear, though).

The "Recently Used" entry in the file open/save dialog

The file selection dialog (eg: save/open/etc) on gtk applications has a "Recently Used" option:
Over size imaged reduced to link
This has generally not shown any options for me (for some reason, firefox suddenly showed a single entry this time).
I find no use for it either, so rather than having it list recent entries I'd like this option gone (or at least stop being the default!), and the last-used (or maybe just my home) being shown by default.
Any hints on how to disable this? What about the "Search" option just above it (equally non-working, and equally undesired by myself).
Moderator edit: Converted over sized thumbnail to text. (Hint: Your img embedded in a url was perfect -- except the image should be a thumbnail, not the full sized image. Feel free to edit this post and remove my redaction if you want to use img tags with a small thumbnail)

No, I'm not using gnome. And this was actually the first time I saw this dialog non-empty. However, it's not related to gtk2 or gtk3: I see the same behaviour on gtk3 apps.
I all honesty though, I don't care about recently used being populated because I anticipate having the same results you've just described.

Thanks, I'm aware of this, but this merely covers the firefox download option (firefox seems to actually remember the last used), not all gtk apps in general.

Clicking on Dock icon only brings most-recently-used window to front

In Leopard, clicking on the iChat Dock icon would bring all iChat windows (contact lists, chats, etc.) in front of other open applications, and give focus to the most recently used iChat window.
After installing Snow Leopard, clicking on the iChat Dock icon only brings the most recently used iChat window to the front and gives it focus -- other iChat windows remain behind other application windows (if that is where they were before).
Is this just me? My friend tells me that it still behaves like it did in Leopard on his computer. Any ideas?

In the First Post your Specs said Snow Leopard, now they say Tiger
Sorry, I didn't realize it wouldn't remember that setting for me -- I am running Snow Leopard.
With Chax in Leopard/iChat 4 an extra item was added to the Window menu of iChat that says "Always On top"
No, this is not what I was looking for. I have another machine with Leopard, and it does not have Chax -- iChat windows are not always in front, but they all come to the front when clicking on the Dock icon.
I don't use it on the Buddy List as you can set it on Any iChat window.
What do you mean, "you can set it on Any iChat window"? You mean the Chax setting, or something else?
Are any Minimised to the DOCK ?
No, none are minimized to the Dock.
Chax does not work in iChat 5 and may be the cause of the issue.
There is a beta version of Chax for iChat 5.
I would delete Chax and then the com.apple.ichat.plist to remove any thing in it that refers to Chax and then relaunch iChat.
I deleted Chax and every Chax and iChat plist, then restarted my computer. The problem did not go away -- still, only one window comes to the front when I click on the iChat Dock icon -- the others stay behind other windows.
