The Title Bar
Hello everyone. My name is TheXXCloneMan.

I'm new here even though I've been using EmEditor for
almost two years. Due to silly mistakes, it took me
this long to become a member here so that I can post
my blabbing. I would like to be a frequent visitor
to this forum because I feel passionate about this
product. After all, programmers like me stay with
a text editor much of the day. The text editor is
probably the most important factor that determines
the comfort level (and therefore, the productivity)
of computer usage. I would like this great editor to
be even better. That's why I want to be vocal about
my wishes and suggestions. OK, that's the introduction
of myself.

It may have already been discussed but I could not
find a thead that talks about the way EmEditor controls
the Title Bar (the very top line of the EmEditor display).

Some time ago, I noticed that the Title Bar of EmEditor
goes from "Full-path-of-the-text-file-being-edited" to
the generic "file-name-only-without-the-path" display
whenever the screen focus goes away from the window.

I'm sure it's a deliberate design of EmEditor. But, for me,
it's annoying. That's especially true when I edit
a version of a text file and at the same time, its earlier
version side-by-side (two files with the same name in two
different directories). I rather want to see the
full path of the file even when I switch the screen focus.

How can I force EmEditor to keep the full-path dislay at
all time? If there is no way for the user to change the
Title Bar display behavior, what is the justification for
that?
