How to show the full file path in PHPStorm?


I'm new to PhpStorm and wondered if it's possible to show the full file path for an open file without hovering the mouse over the file tab?

I can only find this; http://www.jetbrains.com/phpstorm/webhelp/navigating-to-file-path.html

In Eclipse based IDEs the current open file path appears in the title bar.

    There is now an option to do this in the editor settings labeled "Always show full path in window header"

    Settings/Preferences | Appearance and Behavior | Appearance | UI Options

    enter image description here

    Documentation

    Always show full path in window header

    Show the full path to the project and to the current file in the main window header. When disabled, the header will show only the name of the project and file.

    Note: Another useful setting for those looking for visibility of file paths is "Show full path on mouse hover". This is found under ( Settings/Preferences | Editor | General | Editor Tabs )
