Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?

211b6c29f7The file name should be shortened as in 2.83. The width of the dropdown menu could be made resizable by the user so to allow the display of longer naming (material or file name)?

I expected there would be issues with this, there are two simple things I can see that we could do: 1. Increase the menu size, either for all cases or when there are library hints displayed, 2. force widget drawing to clip the right aligned, grayed out text, not the left one.
Anyway, this is not a bug, we're doing some design changes still. Created #78012 as an initial design task for this.

Even the version in 2.83.1 isn't usable in many cases. When you have an index at the end of the image file name (like "ThisGame_StoneTexture_Displacement_01.tif), you never see the "01" sometimes not even the "Displacement". 2.79 was fine as it didn't add the linked file name to the image file name.
