Secret Pref for # of Recent Folders?

[Richard Carr (Carr Scott Software)]

My work requires searching through sources of many different
products, often more than 10 at a time. Is there some preference
setting that I can change?

There is a nice "Remember the N most recently used items" pref, but
that's for files, not folders, and doesn't affect the "Find &
Replace" dialog.

Regards,
Richard

The recent folders are kept in a separate list from recent documents.
They both use the same limit, which can be controlled with the setting
in Preferences -> Application

Remember the [15] most recently used items

OK, thank you.

I was confused because I had the Preferences setting at 15 but the
Find&Replace would only show 10 folders.

Now that I have the Pref set to 20, it will show the last 15 folders.
Works for me!

Have you tried setting up a file group for each of your projects? (File ->
New -> File Group) It makes doing find-and-replace operations easy for me
on multiple source code sets, since they stay in the F&R sidebar in their
own section and I can label them something easier to read than the file
path. Is that like what you're talking about?
