Recent Documents doesn't update

[chipfryer27]

Hi

Not sure if a bug or just me being dumb (my money is on latter).

When I open FC and choose Open Project I see a list of Recent Documents. However the list no longer updates with my recent files and there doesn't seem to be a way to clear them.

Hello.
You can clear the list by making sure all projects are closed then delete the following registry entry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\MatrixTSL\FlowcodeV10\Recent File List

Hi

Thanks for that, all sorted.

A little surprised that I need to edit the registry though.

The registry key deletion was only because you asked about clearing the list.
In normal use, it should not be necessary.
Did you have more than one Flowcode project open?
If you open a project, then open a new project rename it, etc then close it the registry will be updated with the new project. However, when you close the first project you opened, the registry will be reverted to how it was before the new project was created. For that reason, it would look like it's not being updated.
The registry is always updated by the last Flowcode project to be closed.

Hi

Frequently I will have two or more projects open but in this instance none were open and I was only opening a single instance. I couldn't see anything I would consider "recent" having to browse to my last project and once I'd finished I closed FC. When I opened FC again "recent" hadn't updated since the last time, and I couldn't see a way to delete the entries.

Working again now though

Regards
