Hi,

Is it possible to create a column which will show how many characters are being used per file?

Thank you.

Create a column with  
Value: `$len(%_filename%)`  
Leave "field" empty.  
(if %\_filename% is not the right property, try %\_path%)

Next time, you may have to post a RTFM image as an answer to my question 😂

Thank you for the help @ohrenkino.

I wouldn't dare (without a proper link)  
But just to be compliant with your wish 😉 :
