Version: (using KDE 4.1.1) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages The shown file name is cut at a certain point. The user is unable to extend this margin in any way. By dragging the preview window out of the way, the shown text still does not increase very big annoyance when having long filenames.
Can you still reproduce this bug again with a recent KDE version ( 4.1.3 / 4.2beta1 / 4.2svn)? Thanks :) Anyway it should be assigned kdelibs (open file dialog)
If you switch to detailed or list view, you can resize the name column, in icon view mode the position of the ellipsis appears to be hard coded
Created attachment 28954 [details] Screenshot of the file open dialog in Kate As you can see the test of the directory is cropped, although there is no reason to crop it at that point
Sorry, I am using Kubuntu 8.10, therefore I cannot tell if it's fixed in future versions. Package: kde Version: 5:48ubuntu1 Section: universe/kde
