            Bug ID: 421729
           Summary: "size" attribute displays items instead of size for
                    folders
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 20.04.0
          Platform: Manjaro
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED

          Priority: NOR

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
When showing the attribute "size", dolphin sums items for folders, instead of
displaying the actual diskspace (size) of items used by files and subfolders
within. I feel, that this is counterintuitive. When a user wants to check, what
takes up space - ergo, what diskspace is consumed by files or folder at view -
it should show exactly that, size. Not count of items.

Size is not equal to count of items.

Proposal: Add additional attribute called itemcount, make size show size.
