Brief Summary

Older versions had a Popup Button in the title bar which, when CMD-clicking onto the window title, sort of simulated the most important part of those UI Elements, which are present in all document windows of NSDocument based native macOS apps, and which allow you to browse the current document's folder by opening it in a Finder window (the native NSDocument window one offers a lot more, incl. renaming the opened file for example).

It's a bit unfortunate that this popup menu is now gone, and I wonder if that was intentional or by mistake. It made life a lot easier, particularly when having the database history (Recent Databases) disabled for privacy/security reasons.

Version 2.7.1 still had it, so it must have been removed afterwards. Unfortunately I can't make a screenshot of it, since this version prevents me from doing just that (I just get an empty screen). But it seems to be merely a standard menu listing all path components:

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open a database file, no need to authenticate
  2. CMD-click onto the title

Expected Versus Actual Behavior

CMD-clicks on the window's title used to show a little menu listing the path components of the currently opened database file's full path in order to browse them on selection in a Finder window. Later versions don't have that any more.
