I've searched, and there doesn't seem to be an answer.

Is there a way (terminal or otherwise) to move the path bar in finder to the top of the viewer? Somewhere below the title area and above the folder listing?
 
Like this ?

thank you, but this idea instead:

In Terminal, enter

Code:
defaults write com.apple.finder _FXShowPosixPathInTitle -bool YES; killall Finder

Not quite what you want, but it does display the full path at the top of each Finder window.

To undo, enter

Code:
defaults write com.apple.finder _FXShowPosixPathInTitle -bool NO; killall Finder
 
Thanks for the replies.


I went with Peace's suggestion. Not really what I was looking for, but it seems OK for now, until I figure out the right google search terms.

It must be in a config file somewhere, are they not open/accessible like gnome/kde?
