Howdy,
Thanks for explaining the problem more thoroughly. I've just tested a few different instances where the file names were quite long (over 40 characters) both with and without spaces included. I followed the steps that you outlined as follows:
- Add the files to a playlist,
- Set the horizontal adjustment so that I can see the entire filename
- Close Composer
- Reopen Composer, and note that the filenames are partially hidden because the panel is smaller
- Drag the horizontal adjustment of the Playlist panel to make it larger.
- I can again see the entire filename for each of these files, and they're over 40 characters.
I'm wondering if this is perhaps a video card related issue. One thing to try is to make sure the video card drivers for your machine are up to date.
If the video driver for your machine is up to date, what version of Windows do you have, and what video card or chip?
ttfn,
Sherry
