Recent Groups using Smart Rules not working

[MacDav]

I must be missing something. I’m trying to create a list of DT groups that I recently visited and opened to refer to. I use a Smart Group with the rule below

and get zero hits even if I’ve been active all week within DT jumping around different groups. What am I doing wrong ?

Only documents support this currently, a future release will improve this.

Thanks - that explains why I did not get any results. Pushing the subject further I would benefit as a user if Recent Destinations were systematically listed without resorting to the Smart Group. For instance the following doesn’t make sense to me:

• I select a file and control click to get “Move To”. At the top of the list of groups I can select groups under “Recent Destinations”
• For the same file and use case I select the “Move To” command this time via the Menu or keyboard shortcut and don’t get “Recent Destinations” to choose from
• Similar for “Got To” group list to change groups. There is no “Recent Destinations”

if your smart group should show recently used destination groups but not recently viewed groups, then using the modification date should work.

I think we have two overlapping issues here.

1. Assuming that a recently “used” group is one who’s content was modified e.g. adding or deleting a file, editing a file etc… then my point is that “Move To” should be consistent is displaying “Recent Destinations” regardless of whether the action was selected by a mouse click or via the menu. This is not my experience right now.

2. To clarify I’m also looking for a recently viewed group list (and file list to be honest) which is not possible in v3.51 even via Smart Groups.

Hopefully this helps clarify the issues and the request.

This is planned for future releases.

I would be looking forward to this as well. My workflow often uses “recently added/modified” items to replicate, tag or further do something with them. That feature for Groups would come in handy.
