I am new to XFCE so forgive me if I am missing something dead simple, but...Let's say I have an icon on desktop personal folder. What I actually see is the icon and perso... -- so the question is how to display full name, no matter how long it is. No shortening, however line breaks are fine (so for example it would be displayed in two lines personal and second folder).
How to show full names on desktop in XFCE?
xfce;desktop
Have a look at the HIDDEN CUSTOMIZATIONS mentioned in xfdesktop's README:If you're using the icon view, and would like to change how the text  looks, you have three things you can change: the opacity  (transparency) of the rounded text background, the color of the  rounded text background, and the color of the text itself.You'd want to add something like this to your ~/.gtkrc-2.0 file:style xfdesktop-icon-view {    XfdesktopIconView::label-alpha = 75    XfdesktopIconView::selected-label-alpha = 100    XfdesktopIconView::ellipsize-icon-labels = 1    XfdesktopIconView::tooltip-size = 128    XfdesktopIconView::shadow-x-offset = 1    XfdesktopIconView::shadow-y-offset = 1    XfdesktopIconView::shadow-color = #ff0000    XfdesktopIconView::selected-shadow-x-offset = 2    XfdesktopIconView::selected-shadow-y-offset = 2    XfdesktopIconView::selected-shadow-color = #00ff00    XfdesktopIconView::cell-spacing = 6    XfdesktopIconView::cell-padding = 6    XfdesktopIconView::cell-text-width-proportion = 2.5    base[NORMAL] = #00ff00    base[SELECTED] = #5050ff    base[ACTIVE] = #0000ff    fg[NORMAL] = #ff0000    fg[SELECTED] = #ff0000    fg[ACTIVE] = #ff0000}widget_class *XfdesktopIconView* style xfdesktop-icon-viewAccording to this XFCE forum post, XfdesktopIconView::cell-text-width-proportion = 2.5should be what you're looking for (try a higher value).Edit Reading more of the thread I linked, I gather thatXfdesktopIconView::ellipsize-icon-labels = 0should do a better job (that's already in the README excerpt... well, I didn't notice it).
