Word wrap in TC filelist.

Post by *krojc »

Is this possible to wrap filenames to more than one line? It would be great if I could see whole filename wraped to more than one line. Optionalof course...

No, it is not possible, but you can get a tooltip when howering the mouse pointer over the filename (in full view): Options/Display/Help texts/Show filename in file list as tooltip if truncated.

Display-duration

:D   Hello!
• A bit beside the subject (though...), I didn't found a mean to increase the display duration for text-balloons...
• It seems that it's defined by Windows, but where???
• Only the delay to display the balloon is adjustable in TC, the font too - different than in Win Appearace settings -but not the duration...

It's rather inconvenient clicking on every single file just to see its filename (or hovering mouse over it for the tooltip to appear). When working with lots of files with long, long filenames it would be much easiey if filename could be wrapped and one could see full list with full filenames.

That one draws one more problem/solution pair. If line hight in L and R pannel don't match each other, coloring of every second line is a must and filetype icon must be vertically centred.

I think the only solution now is to make a list of filenames and open it with Lister.

Why not adjust the width of the separator?
Of all the planets I've been to, this one is my favorite.

Not enough?

:D   Hi!
• Right, but maybe isnt't enough in some cases? Elsewhere I saw: to use the superposed windows, instead the classic layout... ? Not very handy, I guess...

• But yet, on the Desktop, Windows wraps the icons-captions! Hence, it could be possible! I would be interested in that too, for other uses...

Agree, but I can not manipulate with files in lister...

There are limits o everything, even resizing... :)

Everything depends on what you do. I rarely change default setting, because I do mostly "basic" operations with all sorts of filenames. Where they come from I don't even wanna mention. Those basic operations + Ctrl+M in 90% do the trick, except for those really long ones...
