--- Comment #4 from Colin <that.man.colin at gmail.com> ---
I have uninstaled and completely removed all traces of Libre Office from
program, AppData and registry. Uninstall does not remove the taskbar tab and I
manually removed it.
Following a completely fresh install, whatever it is that is left behind by the
uninstall, enables the newly triggered LO "start" icon to immmediately resize
and locate itself to the former position when the traditional menu icon is
selected for "pin to start". Something is left behind by the uninstall.

I also now see the confusion surrounding VSF's reply.

Perhaps I never made it clear enough that I was attempting to pin the documents
to the GENERIC Libre Office taskbar tab NOT a libre CALC taskbar tab - I only
had the generic LO tab pinned. Previously, I'm certain I could pin any Libre
document to the generic LO tab and it would present me with all the pinned
documents. Am I mistaken?

As an afterthought, I just pinned the CALC tab to the taskbar and can confirm
the items previously pinned (but never present) on the Generic tab now appear
on the CALC tab.

Surely, if we now have to have all the LO elements pinned to the taskbar
there's not a particularly valid reason for ever bothering to pin the generic
tab.

The quickstart (loaded on startup) LO icon does and only ever has presented a
list of the LO elements when that is right-clicked.

Not convinced activating the quick start tray, right-clicking the LO icon and
then clicking the element tab in the presented list is that much of a shortcut.
If right-clicking the element tab presented the pinned and recently opened
documents, it probably still isn't as fast as simply activating the Generic LO
tab and then selecting from the recently opened list or opening the document
folder and scanning all the available documents.

If any of my observations should be "new feature" requests please advise.
