VisualDirSize

[SQUIRE]

Lefteous:

I think DirSizeGraph sounds really good (thanks to Sheepdog).

Yeah, I agree the existing names are too similar. DirSizeGraph is more distinctive (or even DirSizeChart or VisualDirSize might do).

[rolandd]

A few requests for enhancement

* Might it be possible to print the charts? Saving them as an image will be good enough for me
* Enlarge the filename column in the bar chart
* Show free space on the drive

P.s. VisualDirSize sounds cool to me

Yes, it will add this feature.

I was thinking about adding possibility to scan “lst” files (DiskDir extension) and display sizes from lst file. It could be something like loading report in commercial programs. What do you think? Could it be useful for someone?

* Enlarge the filename column in the bar chart

Currently bar column width is 1/3 of total plugin window. It is best solution for most directories.

* Show free space on the drive

TC shows this already next to Drive selection list....

P.s. VisualDirSize sounds cool to me

I also think this is the best name for my plugin

I did not even know the DiskDir/DiskDirExtended plugin existed Well, I can definitely see some uses for it, for myself that is Yeah I think it would be neat if you can add this.

I agree, it is fine for directories but not for *at least* my filenames

TC shows this already next to Drive selection list....

I don't have the Drive selection list being displayed, so that is why I asked Already found a shortcut (CTRL-L)

One more thing I have not been able to manage is to get your plugin to display from the root of a drive. In other words, I go to my comptuer, there I have the drives. E.g. I choose D and then CTRL-Q, I get "Search path not found". Is there something I need to configure for this?

I understand... I try to make this more comfortable...

I know the problem but it seems to be TC limitation...

Thanks

I know the problem but it seems to be TC limitation...

Could a solution be that we could select the folders and the plugin displays these folders as compared to one another?

Thinking about it, the pleasant side effect of that would be, that we could compare several directories sizewise.

So if I select directory A1, B1, C1. The plugin would just show the sizes of these three directories. Great for comparison

Is that feasable?

As I know, it's currently impossible because plugins get only path where cursor stay. It's doesn’t matter how many directories you selected, plugin show only directory where is cursor.


I've updated my plugin with language files. Plugin itself wasn't changed. To get it simply redownload DirSize from my site.

New beta will be released in mid October. You could expect:
Group by extension
Sort by number of files in directory
New plugin name "VisualDirSize" (thanks to SQUIRE for idea)

[kajoj1]

Hello

New beta version (beta2) is ready and as usual needs testing.
Note that it's beta and may have bugs. So do not use except for testing.
Changes are here:

- Changed plugin name to "VisualDirSize". Previous name sounds too similar to other TC plugins and commercial programs
- Added possibility to sort by number of files in directory
- Added option to group by extension.
- Added report generation function.
- Added possibility to resize filename column in the bar chart.
- Changed default location for VisualDirSize.ini. Now visualdirsize.ini will be saved in the same directory as wincmd.ini If you don't like this location you can simply move the file to one of the following destinations:
* In a subdirectory called VisualDirSize relative to the directory where wincmd.ini is located
* Plugin directory
* Total Commander directory
- Added option to watch changes in currently scanned directory. (works like WatchDirs=1 in wincmd.ini)
- Fixed Plugin should works in systems older than WinXP

Great to see a new version come out of this plugin

The reports look great Thanks for implementing the adjustable column width (though I had to search for it )

On the mainprogram:
1. When moving the cursor up and down the filelist/folder list, the program hangs. I guess it is trying to read them all as I navigate upwards or downwards. I can't seem to stop it with ESC. It also starts showing the Search box as if I typed a letter to jump to a file or folder.
On the report:
1. right align all columns except name
2. Crash when I want to generate a report and choose a filename that already exist. Happened once, can't seem to reproduce it.

Those are my findings for now.

RolandD

Last my bugreport :
I moved visualdirsize.ini from plugin folder to wincmd.ini-folder and now I get this error message:

Unable to write to %windir%\visualdirsize.ini

[petermad]

Danish translation for VisualDirsize 1.1 beta 2 can be downloaded from:
http://madsenworld.dk/tcmd/visualdirsize_danish.zip

VisualDirsize still crashes TC if I open the config dialog for VisualDirsize and then put focus on any other window..

I miss translation options for the caption of the dialog boxes: "VisualDirsize configuration" and "Save VisualDirsize report".

@kajoj1:
Can you remove the ini-file from the archive please? It always overwrites the old one when installing, quite annoying.

@nevidimka:
You have encoded a. 7z archive, not a .zip, could cause some problems when unpacking.

I have uploaded your translation here:

Thanks for your hint. Corrected above.

kajoj1,

1. When moving the cursor up and down the filelist/folder list, the program hangs.

Confirmed, XP SP2.

Some of the buttons in the Button bar are not visible, see bar.png.

Would it be possible to add an option to show the sizes of all directories recursively?

TIA
