Request: Show more than ten recent documents in file dropdown

[hadi4172]

SumatraPDF is so good, but it will need this feature to be perfect for my usage. It would be nice if we can increase this number to 30 or more. In word and vscode we can access recent documents we opened way ago.

The feature was also asked a few years ago on the old forum here :
https://forum.sumatrapdfreader.org/t/question-settings-display-more-than-10-books-in-menu/1401

This has been asked different ways many times and there are now 3 methods.
As I mentioned in that referenced discussion the Legacy method was add to Favorites
Since then the home screen has been improved for upto 20 pinnable entries and file history is now accessible via a shortcut or icon

whilst the "file" menu looks short without other options it soon fills up

Thanks, yes, this is exactly what I needed. For other peoples that may see this in the future, you can add this to the advanced settings text file to have the icon to open the recent files :

Shortcuts [
[
Cmd = CmdCommandPalette #
ToolbarText = 📂
]
]
