1834510 - Show folder size on main collapsed folder in folder pane

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1870641

(Thunderbird :: Folder and Message Lists, task, P3)

Description

[Elizabeth Mitchell]

When the folder size option is enabled, if an email account folder is collapsed, the folder size should be displayed on the folder for the email account.

I have the same problem. Will this be fixed soon?

Comment 2

Seems like the sizeOnDisk parameter is returning 0 for the rootFolder for the server. Could use a little more info on this.

For clarity of my comment..
The previous version of Thunderbird before Nova showed me the accumalated size totals of folders/subfolders for each email account I have.
Now it only shows the size of each seperate folders, it does not include the sub folders.

I've had a look at the backend side of this and opened bug 1873684 - where I've also written down my conclusions - to track and solve this. I think it's better to tackle that part in a separate bug since I think there will still be work left on the frontend to access the correct data.

Bug 1873684 is now resolved. nsIMsgFolder objects now have a sizeOnDiskWithSubFolders read-only attribute, which when queried retrieves the size of all sub-folders to add it to the current one. Note that this means this operation can potentially become a bit expensive if a folder has e.g. several hundreds sub-folders.

It seems to me that this bug is fixed in TB 128.0a1 (or I misunderstood something)

Yes, we have a current solution that works as intended. Will mark this resolved as a duplicate.
