The recent documents list is something that can be very helpful to you if you use a lot of different documents as it allows you to easily access all of the ones you’ve recently been working on, it’s actually one of the most popular features used in the Writer tool. However, there are some people who would look a few additional features to change the list a bit to suit their circumstances and this is exactly what we’re going to be giving you today in the form of an extension called History Manager. Let’s get started by telling you exactly what this will bring to your office suite.
History Manager aims to alter the recent documents list by giving you the functionality to change the size of it or to clear it completely. These are very basic features that are surprisingly not built into the suite by default which is why you may need to use this extension instead. From a business point-of-view, you could be working on hundreds of different documents every single day and when you’re in this scenario, the recent documents list can get very confusing and difficult to use. History Manager includes several different ways to make things easier for you.
There are basically two different features included in this small extension. First of all, you can change the size of the list. If you use a lot of documents, you might want to consider increasing the length of it so that you can see more documents every time, likewise if you only use a few regularly you could make it smaller to make things less confusing for you. Either way, you’ll have the option to change it as much as you like at just the click of a button. You can also completely clear the list of recent documents if you feel the need to do so, you’re also able to do this as often as you want.
You can find the control panel for this extension, History Manager, in Tools –> Addons in the office suite. We highly recommend that you go ahead and install it onto your system because it’s very lightweight but still manages to give you a few important features that will really help to make things easier for you, even if you aren’t sure about it yet. You can use the free download link we’ve provided below and if you still need the office suite, you can use the one we’ve provided on our website too.
