Could you actually reproduce the problem? I ask because I get the same problem 
after your patch.

Honestly, I am confused right now
 1. I tried both versions (prior to and after your patch) in Debian 12.1 with 
MATE 1.26, and the problem did not appear.
 2. Although your patch 
(https://www.lyx.org/trac/changeset?old_path=%2Flyxgit&old=06198fbe1854c64cd62acdbd8bcaafdb2a3b3b9e&new_path=%2Flyxgit&new=06198fbe1854c64cd62acdbd8bcaafdb2a3b3b9e)
 does not fix the problem (in my Linuxmint 21.2  with Cinnamon at least), it 
really SHOULD: actually just setting the maximum property to 10 should suffice.
 3. The maximum limit set in the QT ui file is ignored: actual maximum is 
always 50 (you can check by running the program and incrementing one by one). 
Therefore, this problem should not appear to begin with...

For contrast see Tools > Preferences > Look & Feel > Document Handling.
The spin box for the number of minutes 
(https://www.lyx.org/trac/browser/lyxgit/src/frontends/qt/ui/PrefDocHandlingUi.ui#L111):
 if you change the maximum from 300 to 100 or 9 and compile, the spinbox 
shrinks! So it seems spinboxes adjust their size to be able to accomodate their 
range limits, which actually makes sense, since it won't let you get past those 
limits.
The structure of this UI element (container layout) is the very same as the 
recent documents spinbox, so I guess something is done in code to this 
particular preference to override the maximum limit given in the QT ui file.

At this point I suggest reverting the change you made, unless someone else 
claims to have reproduced the bug. But it is just a suggestion.


Sorry for the headache :(.


Daniel.
