I think what endgame is saying is if a folder has a long name say like

Angels park of Anaheim 1965-1972. (just an example)

It may read as Angels park of Ana........

So if you expand the window wider, then you can see the full name.
People may want to rename it something shorter so they can see the year without expanding the window.

No problem. You could also just mouse over the name and it should reveal the full name, anyway.
