Hi,
How can I display the full path in a file tab, at the moment it only shows the drive and current folder?
thanks

I don't think there is an option for this at the moment. You can turn the drive letter on or off but I don't see an option to display the full path in the tabs. (I'm guessing it was felt that would make the tabs too wide.)
If you want it, send GPSoftware request.
thats a pity, i guess i could try sending a program idea.
thanks for you r help.

Yes, in most cases it simply would be much too wide. But you also have the tool tips showing the whole path.
it would, possibly, be too wide if i opened, say 10 tabs but i usually limit to two tabs per lister. it is basically the same functionality that is available in the file display border, when that gets too long it shows an Ellipsis, the "...",
i cant see this being to difficult to implement so even if you did have say 10 tabs open on one lister they would all condense to just show the current folder, the current method.
unfortunately the tooltips are unintuitive for all intents and purposes.

For me it was a question of opening my mind and letting DOpus sink in. So not so much unintuitive behaviour by DOpus as pre-programmed expectations on my behalf.

?
Yes, could have been more clearly expressed....
When your reference point is Explorer, expectations are low. DOpus is significantly better at providing information in clever and unobtrusive ways. First time around I had no expectation that mouse over a tab would supply the full path, nor that there were two right click context menus for tabs - one when the pointer is over the name, and another when the pointer is over the icon. Now that my expectations have risen from Explorer level to DOPus level such useful little touches have become intuitive for me.
