        Having a link to the relevant bug / issue might be interesting :-)
Ivan's link is good:

framework/source/services/backingwindow.hxx:
        MenuButton                      maOpenButton;

framework/source/services/backingwindow.cxx:
    maOpenButton.SetMenuMode( MENUBUTTON_MENUMODE_TIMED );
    maOpenButton.SetSelectHdl( LINK( this, BackingWindow, SelectHdl ) );
    maOpenButton.SetActivateHdl( LINK( this, BackingWindow, ActivateHdl ) );

        The code is in:

vcl/source/control/menubtn.cxx, method MenuButton::MouseButtonDown

        I assume 'Select' vs. 'Activate' are the different modes: pop-down, or
whatever here:

IMPL_LINK( BackingWindow, ActivateHdl, Button*, pButton )
{
    if( pButton == &maOpenButton )
        prepareRecentFileMenu();
    return 0;
}

        Looks like the recent files list is not built until that is clicked.

        Does that help ? :-)

        And/or what's the root issue ?

        Thanks for digging !

                Michael.
