Show full folder path as tooltip in History pull-down of Thumbnails pane

Post by MichaelRyan »

Hello!

When I have the app open to a narrow window-width (on a crowded monitor :D ), often my folder pathnames are much longer than the History pull-down can display. For example, in the screenshot, the
C:\moun...2\DCIM\
entry shows little of the pathname.

I have a few external disks mounted under a common mount-point, e.g.
C:\mount\disk1
C:\mount\disk2

When I'm trying to go back to a previous folder using the History pull-down, it's often not clear which folder is which in the pull-down list.

The suggestion: Please, if a tooltip could be displayed when the mouse is sitting over a row in the pull-down list, showing the full pathname of the row the mouse is over.
