           Summary: In the icon view the filenames are truncated
           Product: konqueror
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konq-bugs kde org
        ReportedBy: mikelima virgilio it


Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

In builds from recent CVS file names are truncated with an ellipsis after the
(short) space provided for them is finished. The complete file name can be seen only \
in the status bar, and I doubt regular users would find even find it. A file manager \
is meant to manage  files, and since for now the most important way to identify a \
file is its name, I think hiding part of it to make the icons align better makes \
Konqueror-the-file-manager quite a lot less useful, if not less usable. Please \
restore the old behaviour, or at least make the new one optional.
