Hi all,

I have a number of secondary drives in my system, and although they all have proper labels (which show up in the Devices section of Dolphin), when I open the drive, the tab title and window title bar state the size of the drive instead of the drive label (see screenshot).

As I have multiple drives of the same size, this gets confusing really quickly, especially when I’m trying to transfer things between drives or find a particular drive when multiple tabs are open. Is there any way to force Dolphin to display the drive label in the title bar instead of the volume size?

I’ve been searching this issue on and off for years, but have never been able to make any progress - I’m not sure if this is a me issue that no on else experiences, or just something that most people never encounter/don’t care about. It shouldn’t be a system setting - I’m seeing this on a fresh install of Debian, and also experienced the same thing on my previous install of Manjaro.

Any information you can provide would be very much appreciated - even if it’s just to tell me this is a quirk of Dolphin and nothing can be done (at least then I’ll know to stop searching for an answer!)
