File path length

Echoview supports a file path length of 260 characters. The limit is enforced, even when Windows settings are changed to support longer file path lengths.

The limit also applies to Echolog and Echosim logging applications. Because Echolog appends text to file names, when multiple files are created under live viewing a warning is displayed when the file path length is greater than 200 characters.
