Bug Description
The new Nautilus in 13.04 (named Files 3.6.3) had removed the status bar, thus removing the only easy way to know how much available space remains on the system or the drive in use.
Now, If I want to know how much free space I have on a stock Ubuntu system, I have 3 ways :
- Console : df-h or similar tool, not a solution for most of the users.
- Baobab
- Right-click on a folder > properties
I don't know for you but knowing at a glance how much free space is left on my system or usb-key is very important for me.
As Files is a Gnome project, this isn't the right place to ask to bring back an essential feature, I'm well aware of this. But I'm certainly not the only one to miss this feature badly.
For the ones who think that Nautilus has been dumbed down to much, here's an interesting project: https:/

I just upgraded to 13.04 and this missing feature is driving me nuts. I think removing it for no apparent reason falls under "If it ain't broke, smash it to bits!"...
