Public bug reported:

right-click > Properties

In previous versions, the "Name:", "Location:", etc. fields would expand
to fit the window width.

Now, they are always truncated to about 50% of the dialog's default
width. See attached screen-shot.

This is a horrible usability problem and makes the Search (Ctrl-F)
feature almost useless - I cannot track down the file's location.

Either having the ability to see the full Location in the dialog or the
search results having an "open containing folder" context-menu option
would resolve this issue.
