Digit Grouping for file size

Post by mohsyn »

Is it possible to change digit grouping in size to 123,456,789,000 style instead of 12,34,56,78,900 without having to change system digit grouping in regional settings ?

Currently, no.

I will consider an option to customize locale settings.



Please consider auto size format:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the View tab on the left.
  • Change Size format to: Auto
    (sizes are shown as 123 GB, 456 MB, 789 KB etc..)
  • Click OK.

Well I realized that changing it in Regional Settings has no effect on the grouping in Everything.
Thank you in advance for your consideration to include it in locale settings of Everything.

Everything 1.5.0.1379a adds a locale_sgrouping advanced setting.

To override the locale digit grouping format:
  • In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Advanced tab on the left.
  • To the right of Show settings containing, search for:
    locale
  • Select: locale_sgrouping
  • Set the value to: 3;0
    where 3;0 can be one of the following values:
    • 0 = 123456789
    • 3;0 = 123,456,789
    • 3;0;0 = 123456,789
    • 3;2;0 = 12,34,56,789
    • Empty = Use system format. (default)
  • Click OK.
Restart Everything after making a change:
  • From the File menu, click Exit.
  • Restart Everything.

Thank you so much!

It is so much easy to read MB and GB now just by looking at grouping.

Anything with Everything!
