Question

Number of Files Selected Gone

This may seem silly, but the most recent update seems to have gotten rid of a very simple thing. When selecting multiple files in Bridge, it no longer tells you in the lower left, below the thumbnail pane, how many files you have selected. It still says how many files are in the folder, but used to say, for example, "16 selected of 60 items" or something like that.

Any ideas on how to see this again?

My second thought was starting to drag them, as in Finder on the Mac, but no number when you do that either.

Thanks!

Brooks.

      Dear Users,

      At the bottom of the content panel, you can see x files, y selected.

      Please let me know if you still face any issues.

      Regards,

      Abhishek Seth.

      Ah... I see the problem is NOT that it's not there anymore, but that they added the size slider, so it only shows up if you have the panel sized way wider than the way I've always used it. I hate stupid UI changes like this. Almost as dumb as the 9 image limit.

        I am soooo glad that I found this article, yes the slider was my issue too and I had a Dec 2020 update. I'm a real estate photographer and have to have specific images to submit and I always looked down in Bridge to see that number of images. I moved the conent window over more and saw my number of images. THANK YOU @brooksayola for this! Love ALWAYS... SJ Photography 🙂

          Ahh!!! I see it shows over in the Preview pane now. Maybe it was there before, also, but I always just looked below the thumbnails.

          Welp, now that I've gone back and selected a different set of images, it doesn't show in the Preview pane either.

          *Update 2, which brings me to another annoyance with Bridge...

          It only shows the number if it's higher than the 9 image limit in Preview. Why is there a 9 image limit in the preview pane? We walked on the moon.
