Impossible to see full file name/path in Musescore 4
If my Musescore filename is longer than ~30 characters I see no way in Musescore to display and identify the full filename.
I have a number of versions of some scores and It is very annoying not to be able to see clearly which version is being edited.
In Project Properties the full file path is also truncated with no way to display the full path.
In Musescore 3 the Window Title always displayed the full name of the file. In Musescore 4 the Window Title is suspiciously BLANK....

Try the command 'save as' without really saving. There you can see the full name.

Maybe it makes sense to report it on Github.
I don't use MuS 4 and I never use such long filenames - probably I'm too lazy to write them - or the habit is left over from early PC times where filenames could only have 8 characters. :-)
So my hint above was just a workaround for your current problem.

I am a computer programmer since 1975 and I have never ever seen any editor or word-processor in which the full name of the file being edited is not clearly visible. Musescore 4.0.2 seems to be the only editor in the history of computing that does not show the full filename of the file being edited...
Seems like a reasonable thing to request by opening an issue on GitHub.

I submitted the issue to GitHub as a regression UI issue.
