File Info Tips (not showing wanted info?)

Hi,
I need to know quickly what the size of a folder is without having to right-click it and scroll down to properties. Column info only displays size information for files not folders. So I thought I could use the handy 'File Info Tips' but it doesn't work?? Yet I have 'size' selected in the Configuration Menu so...what's wrong here?? The 'Size' field doesn't even show up when I run my mouse over a folder, only a very limited amount of fields show up (Name, Shared, Label, Comment,...but Size is not there??)
Cheers,
Chumbo

Try the View/Calculate Folder Sizes (Shift+F5) or place the "Calculate Folder Sizes" button to the toolbar then click it. Then column info does display the size of folders. And good to know: "if any folders in the list are selected, then only the sizes of selected folders are calculated".
