Window 7 Jump List does not match recent files list

Post by jerrywlee »

I really like the PDF Xchange viewer that have one gripe — when I right-click on the PDF Xchange viewer icon on my Windows 7 toolbar the list of files that appears in my jump list is not the same as the list of files that appear once I open the viewer an click on file/recent files. This is a minor nuisance, but nevertheless a nuisance. Is there anything I can do to get these two to be consistent?

Hello jerrywlee,

The list inside the viewer is the last 50 documents you have opened, while Windows might be using some additional logic in sorting the results it shown in the Start menu list (e.g. only showing you the 10 files opened most times out of 50).

I will now discuss this with my colleagues and see if anything in this respect has been thought of for ver3 of our Viewer.

Best,
Stefan

The current version of the viewer doesn't support the jump lists of the W7 taskbar, it manages recent list by itself.

That is too bad. I hope you will consider adding jump lists support to a future version.
