Hiding the Recently-Viewed view

You can configure the app to hide the Recently viewed view.

Perform this task by editing the file MyConfiguration.plist in the copy of the DeploymentKitApp in Xcode on your computer.

Procedure

  1. In the file MyConfiguration.plist, in the Property List view, find the key labelled HideRecentlyViewed.
    Key Type Value
    HideRecentlyViewed Boolean NO
  2. Change the value from NO to YES.
    Note: In the Source Code view, this section appears as follows. 
    <key>HideRecentlyViewed</key>
<true/>
    Key Type Value
    HideRecentlyViewed Boolean YES

Result

The sidebar menu item to open the Recently viewed view is not present if this key is set to <true/>. Setting the value to <false/> is equivalent to not having this key in the configuration file.
