Description Dale Eltoft 2021-01-06 18:18:52 UTC

Description:
When opening a template the selection dialog does not display enough text to identify a file name longer than 9 or 10 characters. This requires hovering the mouse over each to see the full name. Annoying if one has a mouse but nasty on a touch screen notepad. Perhaps adding a List View option the the dialog would solve this. The icons a not all the useful.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Menu  File-->Open drop down-->Templates
2.
3.

Actual Results:
Open template dialog appears showing truncated file names.

Expected Results:
Desired results: Full file names.
Toggle display option of Icons or List view.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

File => Templates => Open Templates

but couldn't reproduce with
