Filename Display

Problem

When browsing or curating media, users need to identify which file is playing in each grid cell without leaving the app.

Solution

Filename Display shows or hides the source filename as a label on each grid tile. The label appears as a semi-transparent overlay at the bottom of the cell with truncation for long names.

UI Flow

  1. Toggle via View > Show Filenames or the toolbar button.
  2. Filenames appear at the bottom of each cell with a translucent background.
  3. Toggle off to hide all filename labels.

Tier Availability

Pro only.

Known Limitations

  • Long filenames are truncated with an ellipsis; no tooltip on hover.
  • Label position is bottom-only; other positions are not configurable.

Marketing One-Liner

Show or hide filenames on every grid tile for quick media identification.
