Hi yusef88,
Try this is the address box. I had to use sendkeys before the command instead of after but it does work for me.
Code: Select all
::sendkeys "{tab}"; open inputselect("Recent Files", get("list_recentlyopenedfiles"), <crlf>, 5);
I just noticed highends's suggestion..using 69 instead of 5. That works w/o having to use sendkeys approach.

Tip: For bit flags let XY do the math - your future self will thank you for saving them from the simple arithmetic.
This should work as you want:
Code: Select all
open inputselect("Recent Files", get("list_recentlyopenedfiles"), <crlf>, 1+4+32+64);
I added the 32 flag to auto-select the first item making it easy to open the most recent file using just Tab > Enter.
