LXSeries Lighting Software

A minor workflow issue observed in **LXPlan version 2.3.9 (19927 1)**.

### Issue Summary

When using **File → Save As** to save an existing plan under a new filename, the newly created file is **not added to the Recent Files list**.

### Steps to Reproduce

1. Open an existing plan
2. Select **File → Save As**
3. Save the file with a new name (e.g., adding a date stamp)
4. Open the **Recent Files** menu

### Actual Result

* The newly saved file does not appear in the Recent Files list
* User must manually browse to the file location and open it
* Once opened via the file browser, it then appears in Recent Files as expected

### Expected Result

* The newly saved file should immediately appear in the Recent Files list after a successful Save As operation

### Impact

This has caused occasional confusion when saving multiple versions of a plan (e.g., iterative saves with date-based filenames), as it can appear that the file was not saved or was overwritten when it was actually created correctly but not listed yet.

This is a minor issue, but addressing it would improve versioning workflows and reduce user friction.

For context, I’ve been using LXPlan regularly and recommending it to my students, great software overall.

Thank you for your time and continued development.

The confusion might be over the meaning of "recent". LXPlan places files in the recent menu when they are opened. So the recent menu is a list of recently opened files.

It sounds like you are expecting the recent menu to be a list of recently saved files. It is not currently set up that way.

It may be possible to make the change so that the recent menu does show recently saved files as well. But that will be in a future version.

Understood that "Recent" currently means Recently Opened. And that I was expecting it to be recently 'Worked On" ( opened and saved, opened and saved as, new and saved )

This would be nice to have in a future release, but does not justify anything resembling a hot-patch.[/b][/b]

Thanks for the update to the App !
