Handling long file names

[laurensl47680794]

When I create a new project and Rush asks to select the media for it, the file browser only shows the first 30 or so characters of file names. We frequently use long file names, have lots of multilingual videos and a convention of adding the language at the end. A folder might contain files named 'UK showroom opening 2021-08-01 EN.mp4', 'UK showroom opening 2021-08-01 IT.mp4' and 'UK showroom opening 2021-08-01 DE.mp4'. All I can see in Rush are 3 files named 'UK showroom opening 2021-0' and then I have to guess the second half of the file name. Is there any way of seeing full file names or switching to a list view?

Hi @laurensl47680794 

Rush does not have a list view, but one way to add media where you can see your entire file name is by clicking on the large preview button on the button right of the media's thumbnail. That will bring you into a large preview mode where you can see the entire file name and also set in and out points for your video before importing them into your project. 

I hope this helps!
