Support • Re: Show Relative Path in Path column

I've tried 1.5.0.1387a and both path_ellipsis and path_narrow work as expected.

But I'm with the same problem as the OP. I just need to search withing a specific directory (wich is already at path depth 7) and showing the full path is a waste of horizontal space, since the path end is much more usefull than the path beggining.

Is it possible, in the path column, to clip the content to the left? The normal behavior is to align the content to the left and clip the right portion of the content if the column is not wide enough. But if it where possible to align the content to the right and clip the left portion that doesn't fit, it would be much more usefull.

Otherwise, adding a "Grand Parent Name" column would also help a lot since Instead of using the path column I could use both the grand parent name and parent name columns.

Another option would be to have a "Path ending" column configurable via a "path_ending_length" option. if path_ending_length is <= 1, it would show only the parent name. If it is == 2 it would show "grandparent/parent". if it is == 3 it would show "grandgrandparent/grandparent/parent". and so on and so forth up until showing the full path.
