Hi,
Yes, I knew how to view the file size that way. But that wasn't my question.
My question is, I guess it's more of a Request For Enhancement, why when I go to the main screen to view my files, in the desktop version, can't I also see the file size. It's done in the mobile version so why isn't done in this version.
Why can't the developers add in a column for the file size.
The left hand navgiation pane is huge. They can probably cut close to a third of its size if it's a space issue.
Why do I have to do extra clicks to find that information when it can easily be added in like another column.
If your familiar with Windows Explore then you'll know what I mean.

Dropbox StaffAh, thanks for clarifying that, Puma-Hosa!
You're right, when you go to the Dropbox desktop app on your computer, there's no option to see the size of files (unless you click on them).
However, I do understand where you're coming from and thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. Whether positive or negative, it definitely helps us improve.
I understand that this may not be the reply you were looking for, but let me know if you have any other questions or if there's anything I can help with. In the meantime, I hope you have a lovely day ahead!
