Hi !

If possible : in IDE show full path to the project in title bar, not only tne name of APK. Something like :
MyApp - B4A (C:\somepath\B4A\mynewapp.b4a)

Why ?
I am modifing a old project, and use 2 instances of IDE : one for the new (copy of old) and another to see old code, and sometimes
I am lost ... which is which
If the title bar of IDE shows full path then it helps a lot !

Thanks

I posted about this ages ago and got the answer that if you hover above the file menu (without clicking), you will see the full path. Worked well enough for me, hopefully for you too.

Just a small note that I posted a Wish that would enable this. (And many other things.)

[SOLVED] Add optional prefix and suffix to window title using b4xV5.ini

This wish is available in two flavours. The first one is the standard one, below is an advanced version. At some point in the near future we will get support for per-instance settings for our B4X IDE's...
