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

Like this:

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.

Use the Large Tiles view.

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