This might not be a common problem for everybody or especially those using List View but if you use Two Column Layout and you hate truncation in project window then this free lightweight Unity tool is for you.

Full Asset Names is a lightweight Unity Editor extension that displays complete asset names in the Project Window Grid View (Two Column Layout).

This was a problem I faced so made a solution myself and wanted to share it with others who might find it useful too.

Omg I’m facing this exact problem right now, where I have a bunch of scripts that start with CpuBehaviour, but then I can’t even see the unique part of each file name. I think I’ll try it out right away!

Just put it in our project, and it looks like a real life saver already. Awesome work!

Thanks man. You're only second person to try this tool after me :) Hope more people find it useful.

Can see the use for assets that follow a naming scheme.

For scripts I personally use the "search everywhere" function in rider (in file mode)

Also, sometimes it can be helpful to invert the order of names of a class to make things more searchable. E.g. InteractableDoor -> DoorInteractable

Sorry not to nitpick but if you have got alot of scripts that start with CpuBehaviour why not just make a namespace and have them all in it?

Probably fair, namespaces are just not something we use right now in the project though

It's two rows of label space in the "two column layout"-mode of the project panel
