Public bug reported: For me it would be nice to have the option to enable recursive file-size display in the default-view of thunar. When searching why a bunch of nested folders needs so much memory, it's always a pain to right-click each single folder and its sub-folders to see the total size. ( As painful as using du + cd in the console ) For this use-case it would be much more convenient to directly see the total-size in the thunar default-view.
I am aware of the ext4 / inode problem ( circular file-system references) , that's why I would disable the feature on default and allow to enable it in the thunar-preferences. If you agree with me, I would take care for the implementation and provide a patch. ** Affects: thunar (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Derek Freder (acs82) Status: New ** Tags: file recursive size ** Changed in: thunar (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Derek Freder (acs82) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1419545 Title: Make thunar display recursive file size To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunar/+bug/1419545/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
