Status Bar size info lacks Bytes denotation

[Forez]

Under the

Tools > Settings > View > Status Bar > Content > Define Details > Hint Pattern

users can choose what is to be shown when they will move the moue pointer over the Status Bar

But as you can see in this example

Status Bar - Bytes lacking.png (5.97 KiB) Viewed 24855 times

there is no description of units for bytes


I suggest then either changing what effect gives the

Code: Select all

[fc_sizeSel]

or add a new one

Code: Select all

[fc_sizeBSel]

and make it show the same data as the first one but with an added

Code: Select all

 B

at its end



I am using Build 905 64-bit Donor Portable on Windows 10 Enterprise 20H2 x64 [10.0.19042]

Am I correct, that in Build 946 64-bit Donor Portable this has not been upgraded? That it is still impossible to see add a marker, which would indicate to user clearly that it the bytes that are reported in a string of numbers?

Simply define the hint as

Code: Select all

[fc_sizeSel] Byte(s)
[fc_sizeKBSel] KB
[fc_sizeMBSel] MB
[fc_sizeGBSel] GB

[Forez]

Yes, a simple trick like this

Code: Select all

[fc_sizeSel] B

does work - but nevertheless it is a workaround

But I reckon that this is then not a bug, but a feature?
