An easy question. The documentation for NSDocumentController has a section called Managing the Open Recents Menu. It's straight forward. What I don't get is where or where to call these methods. I need to remove some items from that menu.
Thanks
As explained here, you should send a notification each time you want to add to the list:
You have to send this message to the shared instance, whenever you want to add an item to the recent docs list:
[[NSDocumentController sharedDocumentController] noteNewRecentDocumentURL:theURLOfTheDocYourAppOpens];https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37558606/how-to-implement-show-recents-item-on-os-10-9-and-later
So I do the following:
- load the list of recent files when appDidFinisLaunching
- on the close file menu, I append to the menu (after checking it is not yet present)
- I have a menu option to clear the list.
Hope that helps.
