How can I see the full path of files found in search?
When you search for a file show the full path of that file so we can understand where it is located.
Right now, after finding the file and clicking on it, it shows only the folder it is in and one additional level up.
There is no button or option that says "Show Full Path," so there seems to be no way to see the full file path to understand the location.
Stop hiding the full path, show it by default, or at least put an option there to show the full path.
There is a secret way to do it, but you have to know where to click. It is not obvious and easy.
Hi Bryn K., thanks for contacting us!
Could you try the following on the Dropbox site?
- Search for a file or file type
- Change the layout to Large list by clicking the grid on the right
- Underneath the files you'll see the full path, which is also clickable to go direct to the folder.
Does this method work for you to locate the full file path?
Keep me posted!

Agreed -- an easy visible link to the FOLDER containing the image -- or at least that you can see the path to the folder, from any view mode, would be very very helpful.
