Corel Draw File command

[SignManiac]

When you open Corel Draw, I have X3, on the menu bar when you select FILE the drop down list will show you the last 4 or 5 jobs on the bottom that you had open when you shut down.

I seem to recall years ago that somewhere you could change that number to more or less? Does anyone know where in your tool options settings that can be increased?

Thanks

You may want to try woXXom's unlimited recent files macro. Here is a link to the list of macros, this one is the first one on the page!

thanks for the tips!

Okay? I downloaded and installed the macro but I can find where it's at? Am I missing something?

 

[SignManiac]

Okay, even stranger? I have a small pen/plot icon on my task bar that is for Co-Cut that I happened to mouse over. Then the macro I just installed launched and I can now see all of my recent files in a new window that opened. I assume it's using that icon now to launch the macro.

Weird but I don't care so long as it works.

SignManiac go to macromonster.com and he has a zip file that explains how to load and then launch the macro 2 different ways! What you need to do is go into the customization tab then Macros find the macro and then create a icon for it!

Great link

 

[SignManiac]

Thanks Signage. I think I have it working now. When I relaunched Corel, it must have taken a moment to go through all my files and just "happened" to open when I moved my mouse over my Co-Cut icon. So I don't think that icon actually launched the macro.

I'll still read up on that link though. Thanks again.

try woXXom's unlimited recent files macro. Here is a link to the list of macros,

That is the exact same link i posted... Did i miss something?

 

[SignManiac]

It looked to be the exact same link Curtis. I had to look twice but it helped, thank you!

im trying to write up a registry fix for this,,, if i get it and it is something reasonable that a average user can work with,,, i will post it. I hate the 5 slot limits..

 

[SignManiac]

That's great! I know it drives me nuts cuz I normally have between 8-12 jobs files open simultaneously. When I occasionally shut down my system for a reboot I have to try and remember all the jobs I had open before.
