I have a rather strange wish for your excellent plugin.
Seeing the VisualDirSize plugin, I thought we could use the same visual feedback as a content plugin. What I mean is, that a new field could contain some "|" characters depending on the size of the folder or file. Like this:

That’s a good idea. Cool

Nice trick. But I guess it's not a simple decision how to standardize i.e. what a single character | represents (filesize: a 1 byte or 1 GiB; #files 1 file or 1 million files) and what the maximum number of characters should be.

Perhaps the plugin should be executed twice. First time, get all sizes and the second time for calculate the number of characters proportionally.
I don't know if it is possible.

Yep, it would be a percentage.

Yes, this is a tough question...

It would be the user's job to adjust the column width.

I already had this idea 3 years ago as I developed the first version three years ago. My idea was to just deliver the values and TC draws beautiful gradients...
Anyway I'll see what I can do Smile

Thanks from me too for considering, this addition would indeed be great!

Here is a new beta version of DirSizeCalc.

List of changes in Version 2.00 BETA 3:

ADDED the new option "PassThroughValues" can be set in the [General] section in DirSizecalc.ini to enable or disable display of values on FTP servers, in filesystem plug-ins and in archives. The default value is 0 (disabled). Setting it to 1 will enable displaying of values in the special locations but also lead to sort problems in the size fields. This behavior is caused by TC and hopefully will be changed one day. To apply this setting you have to reinstall the plug-in.
ADDED Now display "Empty" or "No files" in the size fields if the directory is empty or contains no files instead of 0.
CHANGED The whole error handling in directory calculation has been changed. The plug-in works much greedier than in the previous version. DirSizeCalc tries to get as many file size information as possible. This also includes special prefixes which are displayed before the value.
CHANGED Many strings have been shortened.

If you download and test the new beta version please check the below

This version includes many internal changes - even some which are not yet fully visible to the user. So please check if everything works as expected.
Please tell what do you think about the new strings. I'm open for suggestions on all bundled languages. It quite difficult to make short but meaningful strings. For documentation on the strings and tokens please check the language file.
What do you think about the new way skipped files are being handled?
"E" before a displayed value means an error occured. If this happens please give me a hint what could have caused the error. In this case please also check if the problem also occurs in subdirectories

1. The [General] section is not added to the INI file even when reinstalling, as it's not available in the resource.
2. It's not possible to delete directories with new version anymore, they are all locked.
3. PassThroughValues=1 works in archives, but outside of archives the thousand separator dot is missing.
4. I can see the string "No files" on a directory which is full of junctions. I think this one should ONLY be displayed when there are only empty directories and no files in it.
5. I get an "E" for "Contains Files", for all directories and subdirectories. All other fields seem to work until now.
6. Change "Gepackte Größe" to "Komprimierte Größe".
7.
A => X (due to its widely known symbolism)
E => Is this always a bug? If yes, it should not be abbreviated.
U => can stay U, maybe you can add A for ANSI as well, disabled by default, just for informational purposes
F => I don't see a way to provoke that. Instead, when I disable reparse point following, I get an M, although it's a J(unction). Maybe wrong order in language file?
