Finder: Checking Total Size of Files
Advertisements
When you want to check the size of a single file, highlighting the file followed by pressing Command-I (Get Info) is enough to extract out the file size.
However, if you do the same when you highlight multiple files, a lot of File Info Pane will appear. In order to pretend this to happen and you only get a single pane that display the total size of selected files, you can use Command-Option-I (Show Inspector).
