    Umbraco 7: Getting Image path tooltip or alt/Title text on Media Picker item

    In Umbraco 4.11 (I know a throw back), when you hovered over the media item you had chosen on the Media Picker you got a tooltip or alt text indicator telling the author what the image path was or what the image name was.
    Is there a way to do this in Umbraco 7? I have had some questions and requests from my content authors to see if I could add this, I don't know if I can or how. But would be great to have this in the BackOffice.

    Any ideas on what I could do until then? How I can edit the Umbraco code to allow the users to see the path or the file name at least?

    I found out how to get the name to show up. But of course all of this work will be overwritten on an Umbraco upgrade.

    In the umbraco > Views > propertyeditors > mediapicker > mediapicker.html

    I added

    <span><small>{{image.name}}</small></span> 
    

    just under the img tag.

    I also updated the list item's height and width to fit the new tag

    <li style="width: 140px; height: 155px; overflow: visible;" ng-repeat="image in images">
    

    The path to the original image in the Media section folder system would be helpful to add to the img tag. Not the numeric number, but if it is in a folder visually in the Media section, it would be great to have it look something like 'media > myFolder > myimage.jpg'

    I got the exact same request from my content editor. Thanks a lot for your solution! Even if I need to add it after each update, it's still better than not having it at all. :)
