<font face="Century Schoolbook L">I am using Ubuntu Mate 16.04.
Under Places,, then Recent Documents, it only lists the last 10
documents.<br>
I sometimes go through 15 documents in an hour and need to go back
to a document that I first used. Is<br>
there any way increase the number of documents that it shows?<br>

I just dug around and see that it's a part of Nautilus, so I presume it won't work under Mate. Or if you did, you'd probably want to run it in a way that doesn't allow it to take over the desktop. such as <a href="http://askubuntu.com/questions/237953/how-to-open-nautilus-without-a-desktop">http://askubuntu.com/questions/237953/how-to-open-nautilus-without-a-desktop</a> </div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">Maybe there's another alternate file manager that shows more "recent files" than what you're using. I don't use that feature, however, so without booting another system I can't think whether Thunar, or PCManFM does... </div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">The screenshot for Dolphin in the Software app shows a "recently saved" section in the sidebar so maybe that's another one to try.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div></div>
