Finder: Checking Total Size of Files
Posted by Wendy

When you want to check the size of a single file, highlighting the file followed by pressing
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 
I (Show Inspector).
