Questions / Re: Is there a way to show the file path in the now playing window?

I worked it out for the Playing Tracks Element and then realised there is a "Now Playing" element that you are specifically asking about.
So here is the instructions for the Playing Tracks element.
Mouse over where it says "Playing Tracks". An arrow should appear, click that and select Customise Panel.
You should have a window with a few elements listed. Artist, Title etc....
Click the down arrow on one of the blank ones and change it to "Filename". This will display just the filename. If you want the full path change it to "URL".
Click Save.
For the Now Playing bar you need to change the settings for Track Information first. I don't know if there is an easier way but I did it by dragging the "Track Information" element into the left sidebar. Close down the arrange panels window and then mouse over the "Track Information" heading and click the arrow that appears and then "Customise Panel"
Put a tick in the "Show file URL" checkbox and click save.
Now you can remove the "Track Information" element from your UI if you want.
In the "Now Playing" element. Mouse over the heading and click the arrow that appears, click on Track Information and you should now have the full path to the song displayed.
Edit: Actually you can change the Track Information settings from within the "Arrange Panels" window, just drag it to the left, it doesn't matter where you put it and then click the 3 dots button to the right of "Panel Settings". Click "show file url", click save and then drag it back to the right. This way it doesn't mess up your UI at all.
