File location display

Post by Larry56 »

In the Info pane the file location scrolls off the edge of the screen and I think at one time I was able to put a custom display of the folder name toward the bottom. I don't see any folder name option in the Info pane Custom Field. Is there a way to just display the folder name rather than full path?

All the options seem to be there under Image ?

I'm talking about putting the folder name on the Info pane itself and not as part of the thumbnail display.

Try this:
  • At the bottom of the Info panel, select New Custom Field
  • Select Add Macro Field
  • Give the field an On-Screen Caption
  • Click in the existing %FileName macro field and use the Select Another Macro menu item
  • Select an appropriate macro (likely either Image | File Directory Name or Image | File Folder Name depending on what you want).

The same options exist when defining a Custom Field in the Info Pane;

Thank you. It never dawned on me to look at macro options.
