Show full path in title bar?

Is there a way to display the full path of a source file (*.c, *.uir, *.h) in a CVI 6.0 Editor window title bar?
I can see that in the CVI 6.0 IDE every file is opened in a different window, with the file path in the title bar. But in long paths some folders are replaced by \...\ simbol, even if the title bar has a lot of free space to display the full path (without \...\ substituition).
For example C:\Documents and Settings\ThisUser\MyDocuments\FileNumber3.c is displayed C:\...\ThisUser\MyDocuments\FileNumber3.c
And so it's difficult for me to quickly understand where the files come from.
Can I modify the number of chars used in the title bar into the CVI 6.0 Editor?

Thanks id advance.

Hello vix,

Unfortunately, that limit is fixed and there is no setting that allows you to change. Sorry about that.

In recent versions of CVI (8.0 and later), while there is still no way to change that character limit, when you hover the mouse over the titlebar the full path shows up in a tool tip.
