Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 52226
Open with last edited document

It would be nice if one could set as a default that when Writer opens it does so with the last document used already open. As not everyone would want such a feature, it could be a setting in the configuration setup.
Framework issue. Shouldn't this be covered in Tools.Options.View.Restore?
Hi shmuelh, thanks for using and supporting OpenOffice.org... I think this is not a defect but an enhancement wish I'll reassign this issue to requirements who is responsible for such issues...
changed issue type from "defect" to "enhancement"
I do not believe that that is a good idea. This one click to "recent documents" should not be too much work, but I would not like it if OOo starts automatically with the 2000 pages master document I finished last day ;-) And if I edited 4 documents in time, with which should OOo start? With that one OOo incidentally saved as the last one after EXIT?

This would would be even more useful with a tabbed interface. If you close with 5 or 10 documents open and it opens them all the next time you start the program, that would save a lot more effort than going through -- File, Recent Documents, <name-of-recent-document> -- just once. Its certainly handy when I have 15 tabs open in Firefox (like I do right now) and close Firefox to shut down and take my laptop elsewhere. And it looks like 12686 addresses making a tabbed interface. http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=12686
