Strange - in 2.13 I have added a fix that should ensure that units are handled properly in search but of course without any impact to sorting. I will check that.

Current version 2.15
A new version is ready for download. 2.15 fixed some issues related to mixed units usage.

The complete list of changes can be viewed online.

Hi lefteous,

While picking folders to fit on a CD and watching the status line, I noticed that unlike TC's full view, DirSizeCalc in custom columns view does not total up the sizes of directories when they're selected with the space bar.

Is this a setting I've missed?

(I'm using TC 7.5, DirsizeCalc 2.15, Win XP SP3).

You mean in the status bar? TC doesn't support this currently. I hope it will be added in TC 8.
space bar
Did you know that you can use cm_LoadSelOnDemandFields to calculate values for all selected folders?

Hi,

I updated from 2.11 (I think) to 2.15 - and now beside some folders, there is an 'AD'. Columns are Name, Ext, Files, Size, Date, Attr. Not all folders have this, only some of them. What is 'AD'?

Example:
Name: SomeFolder
Ext: (none)
Files: AD 3939
Size: AD 6,411,522,907
Date: 14/11/2009 18:07
Attr: h
(so number of files is 3939 - but with AD written before it and folder size is 6,411,522,907 bytes, but again with AD written before it)

As explained in the documentation AD means Access denied. If just AD is displayed DirSizeCalc could not read the folder's contents. If the AD and a size is displayed this means the folder could be read but not completely. The reason for this are missing permissions.
If you find a case where you are sure that you have full permissions then there there is a bug and you could maybe help me to find it by describing any conspicuities.

Ah, I did read the documentation, but I must have missed that bit. There is a pattern to the AD - they are all links in my user profile folder (Win 7 64bit). So, AppData folder (which seems accessible to me), Documents folder (again, accessible to me), and then all the LNK's:
Cookies
Local Settings
NetHood
PrintHood
Recent
SendTo
Start Menu
Templates
Application Data
My Documents

Quite an assortment there.

It could be related to junctions or symbolic links. Can you tell me if these special kind of folders are involved?

A screenie might help:

Most of them are links I think (when you double click them, you are directed elsewhere - most of those have those arrow icons beside them, the My Documents and Recent ones have an actual icon though), but the Documents and AppData ones are folders. AppData is hidden, but is writable - that's where TC puts its ini files after all, and I've never had any problems in saving stuff to My Documents.

awesome plugin. Thank you Lefteous.
you know what would be extremely helpful? If the plugin gave any indication about the directories' content.

Two suggestions:

(1) For example one column could list the most prevalent (i.e. frequent) file type for each directory and the file count for this file type.

(2) Another helpful addition would be a column counting the occurences of a user-specifiable file type in each directory.

What's about the plugin VisualDirSize 1.3?

Actually VisualDirSize was the starting point for my posting. VDS is good, but you have to click through thousands of directories one by one ... not feasible for large DIRs. So I was looking for a content plugin with similar functionality (which would provide info for all DIRs listed in TC, not just one).
