List view

Dense, sortable file browsing with columns and keyboard-friendly selection.

List view

List view is the “workhorse” view: dense, sortable, and great for keyboard-first file work.

What you get

  • sortable columns (Name, Date modified, Type, Size)
  • fast sorting (click a column header)
  • resizable columns (drag the header separators)

When list view wins

  • big folders (lots of items on screen)
  • cleanup sessions (delete/move/rename quickly)
  • “what changed today?” or “what’s the biggest file?” workflows

Tips

  • Keep folders on top if you jump between folders and files all day.
  • Turn on Natural sorting if you work with numbered files (File 2 before File 10).

Useful pairing

  • Turn on the Preview pane so list view becomes a fast “browse + inspect” workspace:
