Description Blackpaw 2014-04-07 11:53:04 UTC
You can specify a list of excluded directories for indexing in KCM module for baloofile, but it only displays the final part of the path. This is confusing, as initially it doesn't even look like a directory and is ambiguous in the not uncommon situation where paths share a common last name.

A roll over hint displays the full path, but this is not immediately obvious and relies on the user having a mouse.

Finally, it is just hiding information from the user for no clear benefit.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open System Settings - "Desktop Search" (the KCM module)
2. Add file paths to exclude from indexing
Actual Results:  
Only the final node of the path(s) will be displayed.

Expected Results:  
Full directory paths should be displayed.

Pushed by vhanda into branch 'KDE/4.13'.

KCM: Do not only show the folder name in the exclude folders

We now show the full path relative to the $HOME folder or the mount
point.
