longer file path name in multibyte environments

In multibyte environments such as Japanese,file path names can be easily longer than its limitation of 255 characters because it is encoded before saving it in file systems.Thus, we would like Jedox to be able to save .wss files with names longer than 255 characters. Actually,our customers normally use Japanese characters for folder/file names and it often happens that the files can not be opened even though it is just saved in not long path(such as only 4th level,etc.).We think of it to be unrealistic for big companies to have many documents saved separately in many divisions/departments/functions. We appreciate you considering this implementation in future versions.

    Jedox Designer uses the underlying file system limitations for path length. As Windows 10 has removed these limitations, this should not be an issue anymore.

    Sorry,some expressions in my request was not exactly correct.Please ignore the following line: "we would like Jedox to be able to save .wss files with names longer than 255 characters." What i meant was that we would like Jedox to be able to open .wss files with longer path without any errors.
