Research direction

Start by locating the File > Properties dialog and the code that displays the Location field; the issue names no files or tests. Trace how the document path reaches that field and inspect existing desktop actions for copying text or opening a folder. Done means the full path can be copied and the containing folder can be opened from the dialog.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

FEATURE REQUEST

Under
File --> Properties

there is one field called "Location" showing part of the file path.

It would be very convenient to:

  • be able to copy the whole path
  • open the containing folder right-away

I guess this even applies to all x-apps
