This is one of the things I've felt while using wings3D.

The textfiled for rename of item,
It is in the dialog box with RMB menu on Outliner and Geometry Graph windows.

If the item name is long, is it possible to a bit increase the width of the proportionally?

For example, if you use eps file import for 3D, the imported object name become the file path name. It is very long name.
So the rename hard, because every time text fields are the same width and too narrow each time.

Best regards

tkbd, maybe import these objects and naming them using the path is a wrong approach.

What is the advantage of that?
I don't remember other importer doing that.

Certainly the first example I gave was a not good example.
OK,I will give another examples.

I often operate that vetex color to material, then it create a material named "color_RRR_GGG_BBB" automatically
But Wings rename text field display 13 characters ONLY.
So I can't edit to last part directly at log name item.

Other cases, Wings3D add variety suffixs to an object/material throuh many command operations long name object + extract , color, copy etc

Other example : Material / object name change ....
Quote: color_000_000_000 to color_000_000_000_keep (Add some keyword for memo)
color_128_128_3 to color_128_128_128 (for rename copied material )
dodecahedron12_extract15 to dodecahedron12_extract1

snapimage_list.png to snapimage_list ( Delete the file extention)

So,I hope that dialog to more useful and flexible.(It as a following image)

I presented a suggestion to the main devs. It's around two and half the current width.
Let's see if it will be approved.
