Directory Size provide a graphical overview of the files/folders in a selected directory.
You can view a chart by putting cursor on any directory and pressing 'Ctrl+Q'.
Selected directory will be scanned and files/folders size will be displayed as a bar chart in the Quick View panel.
Such bar chart is useful for showing the relative size of files/folders.
For instance: you can quickly locate the biggest file/folder in directory.

Indeed very good work
Me happy 
There are just 2 issues I would like to point out:
1. The vertical scroll bar doesn't go low enough to completely show the last file/folder in the list
2. The status bar with the number of kb is not refreshed. Although this could be a TC issue

Thanks for the answers
@Botak
only first 500 are displayed, because on slower machines
appears problem with refreshing. If you want more bars
you can raise MaxDisplayBar value in dirsize.ini for example:
MaxDisplayBar=100000
I've checked my plugin with folder contain ~3000 files and all of them were displayed.
(when MaxDisplayBar changed to 100000)

Thanks for this new plugin...
Just a wish : please enable the possibility to use
IconLibPath=%COMMANDER_PATH%\icones\WCicolib3D.icl
instead of
IcoLibPath=c:\totalcmd\icones\WCicolib3D.icl

Is it possible to make this plugin as filesystem-plugin?
I have installed the ieview plugin and when I want to see the graphical overview I have always to switch to the other panel and press [4]. And if I want to see the overview of the next folder I have to switch back to the first panel, then move to the next folder and again switch the panel and press [4].
Yes I know: I can change the order but usually I want to use the ieview in quickview mode on foders.
So if it is possible to make this plugin as filesystem I would be very happy.

Please consider, that my plugin would loose his main advantage, because it would be impossible to quickly change directory to analyze.

Already implemented. Please wait for the next relase...Just a wish : please enable the possibility to use
IconLibPath=%COMMANDER_PATH%\icones\WCicolib3D.icl
instead of
IcoLibPath=c:\totalcmd\icones\WCicolib3D.icl
@Sheepdog
Well, hard to say, because I've written my plugin as lister-plugin not filesystem-plugin. I'd have to write compleatly new plugin.Is it possible to make this plugin as filesystem-plugin?

2. Check if plugin is installed correctly. Go to TC "Options" -> "Edit/View" tab -> "Configure internal viewer" button -> "LS-Plugins" button -> check if dirsize.wlx exist in the list.
3. You could always install plugin again.. Please write if you have still problems with dirsize

@Clas Hortien
Could you give me correct sizes of directories from your screenshot? Can't reproduce that bug....i got some negative bars when the filesizes are very big (> 2 GB).

1. Please check version your Total Commander. It must be in ver 5.5 or newer.I've got the problem that by pressing 'Ctrl+Q' only the Quick-view window opens. So what's my error?

ThanxVery nice indeed!

Currently no, but I'm planning add option to double click on directory and scan it. Of course, it'll be option to go up to parent dir. So it'll be option to scan root path.Is there a way to view the the root path (c:\ or d:\)?
