Request: Click Statusbar Size --> statusbar_size_format=+1

Post by raccoon »

When the option "[x] Show total size in status bar" is enabled, it would be nifty if clicking the statusbar size would make it cycle through all of the size options by changing the setting statusbar_size_format. Doing so may also update the statusbar to indicate the new setting value as if the /statusbar_size_format= command had been used.

Please also include provision for GB (4), TB (5), PB (6) and EB (7).

Possibly provision the click cycling to skip past large formats that would result in 0.00 XB, instead, cycling back to statusbar_size_format=0 when clicked again.

I have many much interest in quickly seeing total bytes and KB and MB of the current selection depending on what I intend to do with my selected files. I often find myself viewing Explorer Properties to view my selection size in bytes, or doing calculator math, since squeezing copies to portable harddrive capacity can be finicky.

There is no current GUI option for specifying statusbar_size_format.

I will consider an option to cycle through the size formats on left-click.

Thank you for the suggestion.
