Bug Description

Sorry but my english is not well

Conditions:
1.- Multiple large filenames
2.- Select various files

Result:
The result is that texts and icons are stacked, making it illegible

It shows the names of the files in the same way as when you select only one, making it look bad enough.

Upstream closed the bug as duplicate of https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/issues/808 which has this comment

'We are working on new views that won't have this behaviour, so closing it here as more work in the old views is not planned and rather focus on the new ones.'
