Feature Suggestion: Folder Size & Storage Visualization Dashboard

I would like to suggest adding a Folder Size and Storage Visualization feature to the Onlyoffice DocSpace.

Currently, it is difficult to determine which folders are consuming the most storage space. A visual and analytical view would greatly improve storage management and efficiency.

Proposed Features:

  1. Folder Size Display

    • Show the total size of each folder directly in the file explorer view.
    • Display subfolder sizes recursively.
  2. Graphical Storage Representation

    • Provide a visual dashboard with:

      • Pie chart or donut chart showing storage distribution by folder.
      • Tree map view for hierarchical space usage.
      • Bar chart for top 10 largest folders/files.
  3. Large File Identification

    • Dedicated section for:

      • Largest files (sortable by size).
      • Files above a user-defined threshold (e.g., >100MB).
      • Duplicate or rarely accessed large files.
  4. Drill-Down Capability

    • Clickable charts that allow users to navigate directly to large folders/files.
    • Expandable tree structure to identify exactly where storage is being consumed.
  5. Storage Insights Panel

    • Summary metrics such as:

      • Total used vs available space.
      • Percentage usage by category (Documents, Media, Backups, etc.).
      • Alerts for unusually large uploads.

Benefits:

  • Helps users quickly identify storage-heavy folders.
  • Simplifies cleanup and optimization.
  • Improves transparency in space utilization.
  • Saves time when managing large cloud environments.

This feature would significantly enhance user control and visibility over their cloud storage usage.
