Exclude Opened File from Recent List?

Post by jeffp »

Is there a way to exclude a file that I open via code from the Recent File List that appears in the File Menu?

Hi jeffp,

are you trying to prevent code launched files from appearing in the list or programmatically remove an entry from the list?
Best regards

Both but mostly the former. I'm trying to prevent code launched files from appearing in the list, but only on a case by case basis. Some code launched files I want to appear in the list.

What if I do a SaveAs in code. Does that put it in the list too? I need to handle this case as well.

Hi, jeffp.

No way for this currently. But this feature can be added in the near future. Like as:

Code: Select all

ax.DoVerb(NULL, "RemoveRecentItem", dataIn(<FullFileNameOrDocID>), NULL, 0);
Wait for next build.

Best

When you say wait for the next build, are you referring to the next build of 2.x or to the much anticipated 3.x. I hope the former since I understand that 3.x is still a few months away.

Also, I have another post in that requests the ability to set the size/width of the page thumbnails pane. Any chance that can make it into the next build too?

Thanks.

Ability for removing recent items will be in the 2.x build.
Ability for changing size of thumbnails - in 3.x version.
