René's URL Explorer Experiment

{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"DiscussionForumPosting","headline":"Feature request: Show full script path / open script location in PythonScript configuration","articleBody":"Problem\n\nIn the PythonScript plugin configuration (specifically Menu items and Toolbar icons), scripts are displayed only by name or by truncated paths such as:\n...\\_script_.py\nC:\\Users\\...\\_script.py\n\nThere is currently no way to determine the full filesystem location of a listed script and no action to open the containing folder.\nWhy this is an issue:\nUsers are expected to already know where PythonScript stores scripts.\nTruncated paths are insufficient when multiple scripts have similar names.\nLocating the actual .py file often requires manual searching through AppData or guessing plugin-specific directories.\nThis is especially problematic for infrequent users, administrators, or anyone revisiting an old setup. (For example, I last updated the scripts about six months ago. So I don't remember where they are located.)\nExpected / Suggested behavior:\nOne (or more) of the following improvements would significantly increase usability:\nDisplay the full absolute path (e.g. as a tooltip on hover).\nAdd a context menu option such as:\n“Open script location”\n“Open containing folder”\nOptionally, add a read-only field showing the resolved path of the selected script.\nScope:\nThis is not a functional bug but a UX / quality-of-life improvement that makes script management more transparent and reduces unnecessary friction.\nBenefit:\nFaster script maintenance\nLess confusion for non-expert users\nNo need for external searching or guessing internal directories (I've already spent 20 minutes looking for that folder today.)","author":{"url":"https://github.com/lukider","@type":"Person","name":"lukider"},"datePublished":"2026-02-09T09:35:01Z","url":"https://github.com/bruderstein/PythonScript/issues/406"}
