Visual folder location after search

[wdavidw]

This is nothing else than a feature request. A little frustration that I kept with me years after years of using Buttercup when it was first announce on HackerNews. On the Desktop app, after searching, and founding, a card, the user land on the card itself. However, there is no indication what that card resides inside the folder hiercharchy. Only the direct parent folder is highlighed. Thus, it is impossible to know where that card reside.

Here is a visual description of the workflow.

1. Let's say the user wish to get his vault password located inside the "Buttercup Password" card.

2. The search modal redirects him to the card

3. Let's image now that he wish to move the card and he don't remember its location, whether it is inside the "Customer" or "Personal" group. The direct ancester "Buttercup" is highlighted but not its parent "Customers".

There are a few possible solutions to provide visual guidance :

• Expand the parent folder hierarchy : VSCode does this on search, I don't really enjoy the idea of having more and more folders expanded as I search multiple cards.
• Highlight all the entire parent folder hierarchy and not just the first parent ancestor : (probably) simple while highly efficient
• Provide a breadcrumb : displayed above the "Document" and card pane, it could be activated/desactivated from the preference pane

Thank you for the wonderful application, it is my daily driver.

Very reasonable gripe and one I share.. good idea and options! Would be happy for someone to take a look at this and it's probably all visual and easier to update now that the UI is bundled into this app.
