GrandPerspective

GrandPerspective is a small utility application for Mac OS X that graphically shows the disk usage within a file system. It can help you to manage your disk, as you can easily spot which files and folders take up the most space. It uses a so-called tree map for visualisation. Each file is shown as a rectangle with an area proportional to the file's size. Files in the same folder appear together, but their placement is otherwise arbitrary.

Note: Now requires OS X 10.8 or later running on a 64-bit Intel processor

Improvements:

• Updated the application to support Base Internationalization. This makes it easier to provide translations for other locales
• Updated the progress panels to replace details of folder being scanned by a determinate progress bar

Minor improvements:

• Extended Help with section "How To Handle Crashes when Scanning"
• Extended Help with section "How to explain differences in reported sizes"

Bug fixes:

• Fixed: The Uniform Type Ranking window did not always open again after it had been closed.
• Fixed: Let Escape key close Filter Selection Panel, Welcome Window, and Filters Window.
• Fixed: When the free size reported by the system was not fully accurate, the miscellaneous used space was incorrectly set to a huge value.
• Fixed: Using the same filter more than once failed
• Fixed: Rescan did not work on views created by filtering an existing view
• Fixed: The filter description in the Filter window was not always updated
• Minor fixes to app metadata
