Let's not list the linked datablocks; there will almost universally be far too many to be reasonable to list.

_**Assistant**_
Good point! Having hundreds of linked datablocks listed would make the UI cluttered and unusable. Let me remove the linked datablocks display and simplify the library listing:

Perfect! Now the UI is much cleaner and more focused. The linked libraries section will show:
## ✅ **Simplified Library Display:**
1. **Library Name** - The filename of the .blend file
2. **File Path** - Full path to the library file
3. **Missing Status** - Red "MISSING" label with ERROR icon for broken links
4. **Open Button** - Direct access to open each library file
5. **Clean Layout** - No overwhelming lists of individual datablocks
## <20><> **Benefits of This Approach:**
- **Faster Scanning** - No need to collect hundreds of datablock names
- **Cleaner UI** - Focus on what matters: library files and their status
- **Better Performance** - Less memory usage and faster UI updates
- **Easier Navigation** - Users can quickly see which libraries are missing and open them
The extension now provides a clean, professional interface that shows you exactly what you need to know:
- How many libraries are linked
- Which ones are missing (highlighted in red)
- Easy access to open any library file
- No overwhelming detail that clutters the interface
This is much more practical for real-world use where scenes can have hundreds or thousands of linked objects!
