Reopen document on startup


Recommended Posts

At the moment AD opens with one file that I am working on opened.

 

Then I open another file and close AD.

 

When I start AD again it again opens only the first file as before. It seems to forget about the second open file.

 

Is this due to the wording of the setting "Reopen document on startup" in preferences? Does it explicitly mean it will open only one document?

Are you closing the app using the applications close button (not each document using each windows own Close button). Is the document edited at all or not? A recipe would help.

It doesn't matter wether I edit the secondly opened document or not.

 

I usually close AD by clicking on the top right X of the main window.

I tried File > Exit and it behaves the same.

I can confirm this behavior. Only the first document will be opened.

Same here, only the first document opens no matter how many other documents were opened when I close AD using the both File>Exit or the cross in the top right of the AD window.

Thanks, Patrick, but to be fair it only says 'Reopen document on startup' not documents. ;)

I'll report the typo then too ;)

I want to add, that in the german language version it also says 'Dokument beim Start erneut öffnen'. It should read "Dokumente ...'
