In thumbnail view, is it possible to show the file size below the file name?

I have searched but have not found a solution. I often deal with images and videos, so it would be more efficient if I could display the size of each file below it.
I wonder if this effect can be achieved? Thanks!

PS: I searched for a way to display file information on the thumbnail, but this is not what I want.

Run this through the address bar to overlay just the file size:

Code: Select all

conf("ThumbsOverlayContent", '<prop size *b>'); //friendly formatted file size

Thanks for your reply, but this only works for images, not other files like videos.

Try to check this: Configuration | Preview | Thumbnails | For videos as well

Thanks for your work! It would be great if the file size could be shown separately (without overlaying the thumbnail) in the future. :)

That's how it is. Use a Tiles view if you want it at the side of the thumbnail.
