See a file's details and activity

The details panel shows everything about a file or folder: its properties, who has access, and what happened to it.

#Open the details panel

Select the file or folder: its details appear in the panel on the right. If the panel is closed, right-click the item and choose Info, or press Ctrl + Alt + Y (Cmd + Option + Y on a Mac).

#Details

The Details tab shows:

• Properties: type, size, location, owner, dates of creation and last change, and for a folder the number of items in it (see A folder's size and contents);

• Who has access, with Manage Access to change it;

• Tags;

• for photos and videos, their information: duration, resolution, codec, frame rate or photo data.

#A folder's size and contents

For a folder, Details shows its size and Files:

• The size is the total of everything inside the folder, sub-folders included. Items in the Trash are not counted. Hover the size to see the exact number of bytes.

• Files counts only the items directly inside the folder, files and sub-folders together. It doesn't count what is inside the sub-folders, and there is no separate count of sub-folders. In a workspace, items hidden from you are not counted.

Drime has no screen that counts all the files and sub-folders of a folder, at every level.

To compare folders, use the list view: its Size column shows the size of folders too, and you can sort by it. Folders always stay above files. The grid view shows sizes for files only.

If a folder's size looks wrong, recalculate it: see Folder settings.

#Activity

The Activity tab lists what happened to the item: added, viewed, moved, renamed, edited, shared, commented, downloaded, deleted and restored, with who did it and when.

• Filter by type of action, by person, or by period: today, the last 7, 30 or 90 days.

• For a folder, the activity covers everything inside it.

• The latest 200 entries are shown.

Only the owner, or people the item is shared with directly, can see its activity.
