Dolphin size of a single folder with subfolders

hello community,

i’ve got a question using dolphin as filemanager. i can’t figure out how to see the size of a single folder (including subfolders). for example: i need the size of a folder “Documents” including the subfolders. actually i can only see the number of included elements but i need to now the size of the folder.
i appreciate your help

Right-click on the folder and select “Properties”

settings > config dolphin > view modes > details > folder size display > size of contents > depth of calc

this will be slower refresh in dolphin but will will show the contents under the size column in the details view

Awesome!!! Just how to see? For me it shows the number of items in column “size”.

Another alternative: DirStat, either KDirStat (seems not available anymore) and QDirStat

filelight does the visualize thing.

Not as fancy as the others, but fast. As desktop app or servicemenu…GDU.
