File Size in FILE NAME details listings

I would like to see the File Size is RIGHT JUSTIFIED.
Currently it is left justified seems very odd to me.
(2)
Secondly, is there an option so I can see the file size in actual bytes??
I sometimes have sized-down thumb nails saved in the same folder, I lost my sense of big files versus small files seeing sizes in MB/KB.
A column like this is hard to tell:
IMG_2627.JPG 3.56 MB
IMG_2628.JPG 3.78 KB
IMG_2629.JPG 2.97 MB
IMG_2630.JPG 4.38 KB
I would like to see something like:
IMG_2627.JPG 3,563,678
IMG_2628.JPG 3,780
IMG_2629.JPG 3,063,789
IMG_2630.JPG 4,980

Oh no.... the web trimmed my spaces, should be right justified too.

Yes perhaps better...

Currently there is no way to customize details view...

What about right aligned columns:
Code: Select all

IMG_2629.JPG 3,063,789
IMG_2630.JPG 4,980

WOW...
seeing a requested feature back in year 2005 and still on the wish list is really cool... And most of all, it is not something that is hard to implement. Take no more than 10 minute to change the code.

Yes, very easy, but some users want to see it in Kb or Mb and not in bytes...

No, No, No..... I suggest to *ADD* an option to show in bytes (in addition to existing KB/MB/GB, which many other users like). This addition will take, as suggested in my previous post, 10 minutes to program.
Otherwise, if just changing from KB/MB/GB into just actual byte might just take 10 seconds to finish...

It's great to have this now. But, you've guessed it, i have some problems.
First of all: it's wrong. The column always says bytes, even if the file is much bigger.
Having the size column left aligned makes it hard to read and to get an overview with one look. So i would like to have it right aligned when size is being displayed in bytes like in that post by Helmut.
The other thing is that you spelled out bytes. That takes a lot of room and makes the size column very wide. That's bad, especially since the number will get really big, if the filesize is beyond 1MB. So it should read "B" for bytes (and NOT "b" since the small letter is commonly used for "bit" size.

Example:
If there's a file, which is 100 kBytes big, it says 100 bytes in the size column of the details view, instead of 100.000 Bytes.
