I have an update pending in the current development code that will only show the full path for the toplevel notes, but not for child notes. This is how I intended it, but unfortunately did not implement correctly in the current release.
If you are on Ubuntu you can try the latest snapshot version https://launchpad.net/~jaap.karssenberg/+archive/ubuntu/zim-snapshots to see the updated behavior. Hope that works better for you.
