Please add the ability to right click the file title at the top of the Affinity window to see the finder path of the file. This is a very useful feature and pretty much standard on current Mac OS apps.

In the Windows versions of the apps, the full path is displayed in a tooltip when I hover over the filename on the document tab.

You also have File > Open Folder in Explorer option in Windows

Not sure if there is a similar option on the Mac

Yes, it's File > Reveal In Finder

 

Found that. Thanks owenr. Very helpful. I do think it could be made simpler and consistent with how other Mac OS apps do this when the title is right clicked, that's my wish:

I second the above. I'm glad to see Reveal in Finder exists, though! OMG. 

Was about to lose what's left of my mind. I sometimes have 10+ files open for days at a stretch while I'm working on projects, and I often forget where I've parked them. 

The irony here is having many folders for organization, and trying to be very organized, leads to scads of nested folders, which gets confusing in and of itself. Or maybe it's just age and creeping senility... o.O

Still no update? also annoying when working on files located on local servers. "Reveal in Finder" not good enough in those situation and Designer should follow MacOS interface rules (Command-click the title should show full path)

Has there been an update to this before I update my Affinity Photo version?

Right clicking would be ideal to do as hovering and waiting for it to show is a real pain in the neck and slows my work

This is essentially standard behaviour on a Mac so I'm always surprised when I try to do it and it doesn't exist.

From a developer's perspective I wouldn't think it would be a huge task.

Please add this (hopefully simple) feature request: Right-click on the filename to reveal the full path of the file.

This would be SO helpful in my work!

(FYI, I am using the Mac version of Affinity Publisher 2, and loving it)

I guess this simple feature is never going to happen

I agree that right-clicking the window title should show the file path, but you'll be able to run a script to display the path once scripting becomes available.
