    Hello everyone!
    When I search for something in the project tab and click a file, I will get some information displayed on where in the project it is placed.
    Is there a way to jump to one of those layers, though?
    For example, when I found a file, I want to access the folder above. I do get that folder displayed and I can see the full path. But I cannot directly access it by clicking on it.

    Maybe this image will help illustrating what I am talking about:

    Many thanks for any hints,
    Greetings,
    Shu

    In 5.4, the area that shows the path seems to have been reduced to a path with one line only.
    So I guess this is not going to happen?
    It really consumes a lot of time looking for folders. If you could just search for one of its contents and access the folder like I described in the first post here, it would be a much quicker procedure.

    Just press "F" button, you will show the selected asset in its containing folder
