Question

How to have entire file name show in device's portrait mode?

Hello All, 

 

This is my inaugural post within this community forum. 

 

To begin, while I've been using Acrobat infrequently for many years, my multiple lists of files have nevertheless grown to the point where I can't remember the file names of most. Assuming that everyone's devices show file names in a contracted view while in portrait orientation as mine does, then you know it can become rather tedious & irritating always having to either physically rotate your device's screen, or as I will often do, use the file's 'rename' option just to view the entire file name. Neither method is very efficient and with some of my research projects requiring that I lookup many files, it's finally time that I find out if there's a way to view each of my files full names without having to use the aforementioned methods?  I should note that I first used the app's search function and posed my query many ways without success before I decided the need to post a new thread. 

 

So with that bit of background, "is there a way to have long file names show fully while my tablet is in portrait mode, or even in landscape mode for really long file names"?  If yes, what do I need to do"? Thank you!

Hi @Simon Ross,

 

Hope you are doing well. Sorry for your experience with Acrobat Reader Mobile.

 

Would you mind sharing the details of the device you use and a screenshot of the pattern in which the name is displayed on the device?

 

We tried reproducing the same at our end, but the devices showed two lines of names on the recent list when we tried to view the file name in Portrait mode.

 

Please share the above details so we can dive deep into the issue and assist you accordingly.

 

Look forward to hearing from you.
