Truncate matched parts of paths in search results view to save screen space

Post by vdeuser379 »

Hi,

As the title suggests. I personally Feel this would be a really useful option. I frequently run into this problem.

Before:
Everything_DReallyLongFolderNameOrPath123456FooBarText__-_Eve_2023-07-04_15-53-16.png
Everything_DReallyLongFolderNameOrPath123456FooBarText__-_Eve_2023-07-04_15-53-16.png (411.78 KiB) Viewed 3865 times
After:
Everything_DReallyLongFolderNameOrPath123456FooBarText__-_Eve_2023-07-04_15-45-25 - Copy.png
Everything_DReallyLongFolderNameOrPath123456FooBarText__-_Eve_2023-07-04_15-45-25 - Copy.png (310.91 KiB) Viewed 3864 times
Now I can see what I need from the directory structure much easier, and can also view much more columns and more of the preview pane.

Thanks.

An option to show paths relative to the current search is on my TODO list.

Thank you for the suggestion.
