Long filenames

    If long filenames are used, then they push the other columns off screen (I have Last Modified and Download enabled). Is there any way around this? I am assuming that the text in the filenames cannot wrap.
    I was trying to add a short description to the filename so the files could be identified more easily (rather than having to load the description window).
    Or could a column with a portion of the description be added to the document lists? Either of these would be very helpful.
    The organisation I am setting this up for use rather unhelpful filenames such as 1424163634_82.pdf!

    Currently there is no way to achieve what you are looking for. I will have to do some thing for a solution.

    I could achieve something close enough by adding the following to style.css

    .mdocs-title-href {
    display: block;
    white-space: normal;
    }
    .mdocs-red { white-space: nowrap;}

    However, it means the little icons for date and download would be on separate lines. Also, it doesn’t work on my phone (where long filenames might be a pain anyway). A column with a few characters of the description showing would be my favourite enhancement.

    It’s something to think about, perhaps.

    Thanks, I will give it some thought and see what I can do 🙂

    I have managed to configure things so I don’t need this – no longer displaying the filename combined with my CSS above has worked fine, so no need to worry about this unless someone else wants it.

    thanks for the update I will still keep it on my radar as a feature request.
