Public bug reported:

There is a usability problem with the file search functionality in
gnome.

My search results found two folders with the same name (SSD in the
attached image example). I wanted to find out more about each folder so
I first wanted to see the path for each folder.

Therefore I right-clicked on the folder to see its full path, however
the path is truncated to fit in the properties dialogue box.

I expanded the dialogue box to the right hoping that that would allow me
to see the full path, but this didn't happen.

Please see the attached image to understand the problem more fully.
