@xPoppyx We certainly could return this information in the Properties dialog, but it isn't part of the standard item query data. Meaning, we'd have to recursively calculate this manually.

Because of limitations with Windows NT filesystem (ntfs) folder sizes aren't returned as part of the standard query. This isn't specific to the properties dialog either.

Then it is possible, but in another way?

It is possible, but we haven't gotten around to it yet.
