ubuntu bug 1524610 by request of seb128@ubuntu.com The width of columns in Nautilus appears to be averaged across all columns such that all columns display as much as possible. The consequence of this is that long names in the location-column will cause the name in the name-column to be truncated. The problem with this is that files with long names cannot readily be identified, because the differentiating part of the name is truncated as with, for instance, suffixes denoting version numbers.
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version of Files (nautilus), then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
