SUMMARY

When copying a file fails, Plasma shows a dialog with the file's path. If this path doesn't fit the default dialog's width, it becomes elided.
However, it is not possible to display the full - non elided - path, ie when the dialog's size becomes increased, the elided paths stays the same.

It would be convenient if the path adjusts itself to the dialog's size. It could also be displayed fully in an mouse over hint.

Unfortunately, 4 years later, this is still the case as I just noticed on openSUSE TW. :)

Kai, I've added you as of https://blog.broulik.de/2024/08/a-fresh-perspective-on-things/ :)
> What really grinds my gears is elided labels with no tooltip or other means to see the full text.
