Question --- you say you don't see full file path  (full name of file) 
in gnucash. But how about in every other application you use. For 
example, if using your word processor on a document, do you see the full 
path of that file?

If you are seeing this everywhere, then it is a global choice you have 
made. Or have allowed to have been made for you by accepting a default. 
For example, the default in Windows is "don't show full path". So if you 
are a Windows user and want to see full file paths you change that 
setting  to "show full path"  (a Windows setting, not a gnucash setting)
