You can control the title bar in your .tm_properties Try something like...

windowTitle = "$TM_DIRECTORY/$TM_DISPLAYNAME"

Hello,

when I am in a situation where I have identically named files in different directories open in TextMate, then the displayed path in the title bar doesn’t update to reflect the currently selected tab. Is this intended?

For example

...

mkdir t cd t mkdir foo bar echo foo > foo/baz.txt echo bar > bar/baz.txt mate */baz.txt

leads to a situation where it is impossible to see whether I’m currently editing baz.txt in foo or bar, see http://www.maven.de/pics/tm2_path_bar.png vs http://www.maven.de/pics/tm2_path_foo.png .

I would have expected the title bar to reflect my currently active tab.

Thanks, Daniel.

Basically the way you are opening the two files ends up making TextMate think that your "project" is Bar which is why they are both showing Bar as the "project" folder (which is what the Bar in the screenshots actually is).

Using the following ends up with t as the "project"

$ mkdir t $ cd t $ mkdir foo bar $ echo foo > foo/baz.txt $ echo bar > bar/baz.txt $ echo t > ./baz.txt $ mate **baz.txt

I usually use something like this for my projects:

windowTitle = "PROJECTNAME:$TM_SCM_BRANCH ${TM_FILEPATH//Volumes/VolumeName/projectfolder///}"

Which gives me the full path within the project as the projects I work on often contain multiple files with the same name.

Just realised I misunderstood. I didn't notice those two urls were actually screenshots, it's a bit odd they arent updating.
