[feature request | UI improvement] Support for long item name in the grid ?

[ApolloTang]

One thing that prevented me to fully utilize the power of dropzone is that I have item in my grid with long name:

will you consider make improvement on the UI so that item with long name can be identify or read easier ?

Perhaps at least allow two line for name and wrap them:

But the above is not sufficient b/c of the ellipse ... so user can hover over to see tooltip ?

I also think the icons for item in the grid are too large, if their size are reduced then users can fit more and see longer name.

Yep this request has come up again and again in support emails. Support for longer names or at least a tooltip is badly needed. It's on my list for the next major version which will include a visual refresh of the grid.

Thanks for the detailed feature request 😄

any news on this? I see it is closed, but I don't see this feature in the latest version

Sorry for the late reply on this, but I have added multiline labels to the latest version of Dropzone (v4.2.0). It will now wrap item names onto two lines as shown below (before, after):

I do also plan to add tooltips for names that still exceed the available length at some point, but this is a start.
