My users does not need to know a file folder relative weight distribution, they need to know only how big is an object so that they know how to manage relative to their real container (the disk). The bar information does not provide a real value added if shows how big the file is against the sum of it's folder container. Who needs this and what they do with this value? A part this opinion I think the graphical solution is real nice :) but seems to me unusable. :) Luca -- --- Luca Cappelletti Infodomestic.com "...Together we stand, divided we fall." .O. ..O OOO http://developer.infodomestic.com GTalk,MSN: luca <dot> cappelletti <at> gmail <dot> com Jabber: luca <dot> cappelletti <at> jabber <dot> org Skype: luca <dot> cappelletti Linux Registered User: #223411 Ubuntu Registered User: #7221 http://www.advogato.org/person/mutek/ http://persone.softwarelibero.org/person/mutek https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LucaCappelletti/ "l'intelligenza è utile per la sopravvivenza se ci permette di estinguere una cattiva idea prima che la cattiva idea estingua noi" "La chiave di ogni uomo è il suo pensiero.
