[Bug 1089747] Re: Need setting to disable "Display-Recent-Files" for Dash's File-Lens

[Brendan Griffin]

Don't know if it relates to this or not:

I have set the Privacy/Zeitgeist setting to Record-Activity = OFF

Seems like Recent files etc shouldn't be recorded when Record-Activity
is set to OFF. Perhaps another bug I should report?

Title:
  Need setting to disable "Display-Recent-Files" for Dash's File-Lens

Status in “dash” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  A setting exists in 12.04 to disable the display of "Recent Apps" for
  the Applications Lens:  dconf-editor > desktop > unity > lenses >
  applications > display-recent-apps

  but there is no corresponding seting to disable the display of Recent
  Files in the Files-Lens. There should be a setting in the files-lens
  to disable the display of "Recent Files":  dconf-editor > desktop >
  unity > lenses > files > [display-recent-files]

  When I hit Super+F, I'm always stuck with Recent files & folders
  clogging up my dash. For this reason I always end up using the HOME
  option instead. It would be nice to be able to use the Files Lens
  without having to put up with the accumulation of Recent documents.
