MX 18 start menu

heppie · 01-03-2019, 10:55 AM

Just put MX 18 on an old laptop which would never run well, even on Mint, and it runs superbly. The laptop has now been promoted to normal use, I do like making use of old kit.

In the start menu there is "Recently Used" for programs, excellent addition. Is there any way of getting a "Recently Used" for documents? Like KDE.

Thanks.

not in the whisker menu, but I think the Places panel plugin has a "recent documents" function.

Thanks for the reply. How do I get that please?

You'll have to right-click on the panel in an empty spot, choose Panel, then Add New Items.

Brilliant, thank you, I am now sorted.

Trouble with computers, there as so many tweaks and settings which are useful if you can just find them.

Does not the MX File Manager (Dolphin?) have a Recent Files option in the LH panel?
