[Bug 561863] [NEW] Usability: Need to Display Full File Paths

 

Public bug reported:

"
Description of problem:
Realise it is early days and the Activity Journal/Zeitgeist look great so far
but to make it more useable, it needs to display full filepaths.  At present,
if a user edits files with the same name on the same day, it is difficult to
discern them, even with the thumbnail preview.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Every time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Edit two different files with the same name such as
~/workingcopiessvn/jbossadminguide/introduction.xml and
~/workingcopiessvn/jbossprogrammersguide/introduction.xml
2. Launch the Activity Journal.
3. There will be two files, both named introduction.xml.  The thumbnail
preview's effectiveness will be limited if the header data is the same in each
XML file.

Actual results:
Two indistinguishable files.

Expected results:
Full file paths displayed so which file is which can be discerned.
"

Reported in Fedora 13 against gnome-activity-
journal-0.3.3-1.fc13.noarch.
