Is it possible to add a quicklist to the Libreoffice Writer icon in the Unity Launcher showing my most recently opened documents?

Best Answer

The feature you're talking about is called "dynamic quicklists", which is where a program generates quicklists based on information it has about your documents. Right now all the quicklists you're seeing are "static quicklists", which is just a list.

So for example Firefox could have "Recently Closed tabs" or "Last visited", and that sort of thing. While support for dynamic quicklists is in Unity, programs still don't really take advantage of the feature just yet.

Hopefully LibreOffice and other projects will support this in the future but right now this is on a per-program basis.
