Description Teppo Turtiainen 2005-12-06 15:39:29 UTC 
Version details: 2.12.1
Distribution/Version: Ubuntu Breezy

Browsing deep directory hierarchies would be easier and quicker if the path bar
would always display as many of the previous directories as fits it. Please see
attached screenshot for an example.

Thanks for your bug report!

Still an issue with Nautilus 2.13, probably also for the file chooser. The button allocation is really suboptimal in some situations :/.
Comment 4 simon80 2007-07-23 02:47:39 UTC 
Another way to alleviate the problem would be to abbreviate long folder names when the names are being displayed in buttons.  The button bar would be more useful with more buttons being shown than it is now with long names taking up so much space.

Confirmed on nautilus 2.20.0
