Export

Sets the various items to be included within the Export function (accessed via the File menu). Most of these options are fairly self-explanatory and define which specific report elements should be included during export operations.

 

HTML Export Options

 

Include graph image - Determines whether the lower-right graph image is included in HTML exports.
Include drive space information - Applies to the drive space docking panel information.
Include folder listing table - Determines whether the primary interface detail view contents are included in HTML exports.
Launch browser after HTML report is generated - Automatically opens HTML exports in the default web browser after generation is complete.
Limit bar graph exports to this many folders - Specified the maximum number of graph bars to appear in HTML exports (has no impact on pie graph exports).
Merge CSS template into HTML export files - When engaged, this option causes the CSS template found in the "templates" subfolder of the FolderSizes installation root to be merged into HTML export files (as a style block in the HTML header). If this option is turned off, the CSS template file will be copied to the same location as the HTML export file (and linked to from within it).

 

Text Export Options

 

Include column headers – Indicates whether text column headers should be included.
Wrap files in quotes – Enables or disable the wrapping of fields in quotes.
Include UTF-8 BOM (byte order marker) in export files - This option applies only to text file export formats (e.g. ".csv" and ".txt"). Inclusion of a BOM (byte order marker) will allow third-party applications (such as MS Notepad and/or Excel) to unambiguously identify that such files are Unicode with UTF-8 encoding. If you are opening (or otherwise processing) these text files with third-party applications that cannot interpret BOMs, you can disable their inclusion here. Note that BOMs are never added to export files of HTML or XML formats, because they contain their own character set declarations.

 

XML Export Options

 

Use FolderSizes XSLT file - When engaged, this option causes the XSLT file found in the "XSLT" subfolder of the FolderSizes installation root to be copied to the same location as the XML export file (and linked into it). Disabling this option will prevent the use of XSLT entirely.
Full owner lookup - Turning on this option will force FolderSizes to query for folder ownership data during the XML export process. Since FolderSizes recurses the entire folder tree during XML export, this can be a slow process (especially for remote / network paths). This option is off by default.
Sub-folder depth – Determines the maximum level of subfolder depth applicable to XML export operations. Entering 0 (zero) into this field causes full depth to be used.
