            Bug ID: 124137
           Summary: LibreOffice Dock Icon Recent Files List Always
                    Persists and Cannot Be Cleared in Normal and Safe Mode
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.2.1.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Mac OS X (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: robertleeblairjr at gmail.com

Description:
The LibreOffice Dock Icon for the version 6.2.1.2 has a bug with the recent
files list. The problem is present on macOS 10.14.3 but may occur on other OS
platforms. To observe the bug, you just have to right-click (alternate) the
dock icon after having previously opened and saved documents through normal
use. The LibreOffice program doesn't even have to be running to observe your
recent files list. All methods to clear the recent files list will not clear
the recent files list from the dock icon. I've attached images to show the
problem. No reboots, logoffs, removing the dock icon, etc. have resolved this
problem.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create and save file in LibreOffice. Afterwards, use the clear recent files
function.
2.Program does not need to be opened. Right-click dock icon for LibreOffice.
3.Observe the recent files list persists whenever it should have been cleared.

Actual Results:
Recent files list persists when right-clicking the dock icon. It is never
cleared.

Expected Results:
After using the clear recent files list function, the recent files list
shouldn't appear when right-clicking the dock icon.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
This has been a bug which has been persistent, reoccurred, etc. since many
major previous versions of LibreOffice and major versions of macOS. Why is this
a difficult bug to resolve?
