I'm experiencing difficulties with finding file location.
May be there is a command to navigate Data Panel to the open file I'm looking at?
Now I find by name in Data Panel to get Project name. And then manually scan all the folders in it to find the file(

Thank you for any suggestions and comments.

It would be nice to drop-down menu when we do right-mouse button click on file tabs. And item "show in data panel", like in many text editors/IDEs.

this is not a great workaround, but Save As will bring up the project browser in the project that the active design lives.  I use that to help me find the current location.  Just bring up Save As, note the project, and cancel.

 

It's not perfect (does not show you what folder within that project), but it will help you at least find the project.

OH, NO! "Save As" isn't a workaround.

 

"Save As" shows us the last path opened in Data Panel. Nothing more!

May be subscription allows to find file location in predictable amount of clicks?

My solution!

If a file is open, you can see it in Recent Data.
In DataPanel right click -> Move ==> You see file location!
