Show Filename
RainbowThunder started this discussion in Parts and Decorations Design

Hello guys! First off, thanks so much for Mecabricks, it's a great program and it's so much fun. I'm loving it!!
As a little suggestion: I sometimes find that I get so lost in building, that I can't remember, in which version of MOC I'm working or what name I saved last time. Is it possible to show the name of the active file somwhere in some corner of the screen? (So I don't have to "Save as..." and then cancel again, all the time. 😃 )

Oops, this was supposed to go to the "Suggestions and Ideas" thread, sorry!

Hello, yes, I could do that. It is a good idea which is easy to add I think.

Yeah, I think that shouldn't be too much work. 😉 Thanks!!

Hey, I just noticed you added this feature! Great, thanks a lot!!

No worries. I was looking for this topic to post a quick answer but could not find it - I guess I really need to rework the forum to add a search function 😛

Weeell, I DID post it in the wrong section...! 😃

Hello Scrubs, I have a little addition to this topic (and I hope, I didn't already ask for this and forgot about it...!)
Due to my picking rather long names for my files sometimes, (or using something like "Contraption Version 1/2/3/3a/3b/3b(1)..." - you get the picture - it is sometimes hard to find the right file to continue working, since the filename in the list to pick a file is only shown till the howmanyever'st letter that fits into one line.
So would it be possible to show the filename in its entire length at mouseover?! That would be a great help and the names wouldn't have to be shown in more than one line underneath the pic, since that might look kinda crappy, I have to admit...!

EDIT: Oh, and maybe add a save-date somewhere, too?!
