Show full file path in title bar?

• Sep 22, 2024 - 01:57

Hey guys: Is there a way to show the current score's full file path in the title bar? I don't think so. That'd really be helpful when working with scores in multiple folders.

You can already look in File > Project properties > File path
Clicking on the icon to the right of the File path takes you direct to the folder.

[EDIT]
As a Feature Request, there is the possibility of using the space used by the Status Bar. When clicking on a blank part of the score, the Status Bar currently disappears. Instead the Status Bar could be modified to show the complete file path - that would not waste any space on the screen.

DanielR, when I click on a blank part of the score I see the Properties Panel. Is this what you were referring to? If so, there's certainly lots of space on it to display a variety of project/file/score info. Great suggestion with the File > Project Properties, btw.

Guys, in the heat of battle, simply seeing the score's name in the title bar would be much more practical than having to open a dialog box each time. 😉 There's usually lots of room there (see image).

My actual preference would be for MS to show the score's path relative to its install folder. E.g., rather than this:

c:\Users[user name]\Documents\Notation\MuseScore[project folder][possible subfolder]\scorename.mscz

...it'd show:

[project folder][possible subfolder]\scorename.mscz

...as the user would presumably know they were using MS.
