Extended Folder Name

Long folder names result in long folder/file paths, which can cause inconsistencies when syncing or opening files in local programs. With the "Extended Name" feature, a folder name can therefore be split into a "Name" and an "Extended Name." The “Extended Name” is displayed after the “Name” but is not included in the path. This option can be enabled in the project settings under “Documents.” For more information, see the following article: Project settings. Once enabled, an additional field for the “Extended Name” appears when creating or renaming a folder.

The name and path are then displayed as shown in the following example.

Extended folder name, extended name, folder name, long folder name, path length, path too long, shorten path, folder path, file path, rename folder, project settings: Documents, enable folder name
