I don’t know if there is a workaround to the following problems but any help will be welcome. Yet if there is no solution this can be considered as a future feature request for Christian!
Whenever I use the search function of Total Commander and feed the search result to the listbox I find myself unable to see some file names and/or folders that are way to long (yet in relatively normal lengths). The listbox has no horizontal bar that I can scroll to see the remaining of the paths. I don’t know if this is a normal behaviour or not (well, I guess it is as there is no bug or something but rather an inability of TC). In addition the tooltip (which I have active in the configurations) seams not to be functioning for file lists feed using the search function. As a result I’m unable to see some of the files and/or folders in total but only the visible parts sourced from my current window size of Total Commander!
Apparently TC is treating the feed lists in a different way than the normal file lists but if we are unable to view entries of the list we are unable to select what we actually need!
So, is there a workaround? Can I selectively (or for the whole list) view the whole path or am I missing something here? I know that coping the path(s) might work (didn’t try it) but this will be a painstakingly procedure for file managing the files of the list!
Kind regards,
Panos

Panos, amazing! I don't believe you don't know this! Or maybe I don't understand your question . The answer is very very (5 more times) simple: drag the splitter (between panes) with a mouse, or right-click the splitter and choose some predefined percentage. You can also use horizontal panes splitting instead of vertical one:
cm_VerticalPanels=305;File windows above each other
Of course I know this Valentino but this is a partial solution as some paths are so long that even the horizontal panes won’t do! What’s preventing Christian in implementing a horizontal bar for scrolling I still don’t know!

Hello, I'm a newcomer on TC forum and I will be reading old posts too. Maybe I will add something valuable or comment something. So let's start with this:
We still have that problem in TC 6.02. But a workaround are:
- Tooltips for truncated names
- If you use only keyboard try Shift+F6 (Renaming function) and press ESC key afterwards. (Or is there something better?)
