I want to adjust filename width a litter more wider to show filename completely, How can I do this?

Thanks for you help.

You can use below code adjust filename column:

(setq helm-buffer-max-length 60)

By default full path is displayed, if not check your own settings.
Otherwise to toggle this, use `C-]'

oh, Thanks,

I use C-] every time I startup my project, But, When I open many buffer, I want to switch buffer with Helm mini, If I expand with C-], I always can not see my full buffer-name(no need path), It omitted
with some ... by file size, What you means is, I press C-[ again, to see filename ? Have another
ways to resolve this ? anyway, on the buffer right eage, still have some space to expand.

Thanks.

With C-] you should be able to see your full buffer name, this have been
fixed some months ago, be sure to use last helm version.

Get my Gnupg key:
gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 59F29997

OK.

@manateelazycat , Thanks, I set it to nil to use the longest buffer-name length found.

Thanks! This was bothering me so much.
