Hi Philippe,


Well, I have not tried, but it might work like the following:

First you need the path+name of the recent file:
  String recentFile=openRecentMenu.getItem(i).getLabel();
where 'i' is 0 for the most recent and 1 for the file before.

Then, if that file is not a blank String, you can use
  new RecentOpener(recentFile);

Note that opening recentFile number 1 this way will put it on top of the 'recent' list, so it will become recentFile 0. If you want to leave the 'Open Recent' menu untouched, use
  IJ.open(recentFile); or
  ImagePlus imp = IJ.openImage(recentFile);

Michael
