@NigelRS: As per your other post (Remote view folder size):
Directory sizes in file panel are available in the latest WinSCP 6.0 beta only:

Issue 41 – Show directory size in file panel

@martin: It shows it in the properties pop up box; but it doesn't show it in the pane, you should be able to have a setting which allows the folder to display the size of the contents within so you can glance at them easily.

@martin: Thanks! using this option after many years

Great! I'm looking forward to it.

Thanks,
Robert

Done. Please wait for the next release.
If you open Properties dialog for selection, which includes at least one directory, there will be button "Calculate" next to size indicator. Pressing the button will invoke operation, which calculates total size of all files within directory(ies).

Did no-one understand what I meant, or am I the only one that likes to know the dir size? :(

Thank you for releasing a very useful and user-friendly tool for SCP and SFTP. Currently it is the standard tool to access our Linux server from Windows, and I don't think that'll change very soon :D
Anyway, I was hoping that the properties of a remote folder could also show the total size of all the files that are in it, instead of just the size that the folder takes on disk. (I hope that I didn't overlook this option)

Thanks
Robert
