Hi,
just wondering if there's a way around this.

Scenario:

Moving large quantities of image files around the HD to get organised (i.e. consolidating different source folders). When trying to move a file to the destination folder and there's already a file in that folder with the same name it obviously gives "file with this name exists" dialogue box.

What I want to know is, is there a way in which one can see the source and destination file sizes? Before switching I'd do the same in Win**** and it'd present me with a dialogue box showing file sizes - so if the image was the same size for both I'd overwrite, if not I'd skip.

Any ideas? Any way to do this in the OS or any way to do this with third party softs?

10.2.4

Thanks.
