Show full document name in recents
Every time I go to open a new file, it takes 3 clicks. One click to maximize the tiny (minified) 'Open' file pane to fill the whole window (even if I did this last time I opened a file). One click to switch to Cloud Documents (because I can't change to list view in the 'Recent' tab, so I cannot see the full file names and do not know if I am selecting the correct file.) And the third click is to actually open the file.
Now, I don't know about other users, but I open and close my XD files anywhere from 20 to 100 times a day. To have to go through all this work is SUPER annoying.
Why can't you just open my 'Open' pane to the same position/tab/size that I last left it on? Or allow me to choose my default view? Seriously folks, it's the little things...

Seconding this. Love the recent tab, but can't see which file is the actual one I want - my file names end with _V1234 etc . Easy way to fix this would be on hover: show preview of full filename/path.
The UI is quite in its simplicity - for most users maybe they don't need to see the whole long name and use the visuals to judge what is what. But for those of us iterating over a project we do need a way to know we're opening the right file version otherwise the task gets frustrating real quick (see photo).

When I go to open recent, the files are displayed in a grid and I cannot see the full name and path of the files.
I often have a version number at the end of a file and it is impossible to see in the current view. I would love to see my recent files in a list where the full name and path can be displayed.
