There is some discrepancy between Disk Graph and the actual storage usage according to Apple if you use OneDrive with „Files On-Demand“. I have a huge folder (pink on the left bottom) which actually does not take any space on my disc because I made it available „on-demand“ in OneDrive for Mac: https://ibb.co/DGrmsRM
If I hover over these folders, Disk Graph starts to download these files, which is completely unacceptable because downloading all the files from my OneDrive (in the range of several terabytes) would require much more space than I have on my SSD available. Thus, I had to block Disk Graph on OneDrive to prevent automatic downloads.
Please repair this and make Disk Graph usable again! Thanks!
A new mode to display the allocated file size has been added to the View menu in the newest update.
Since the last update, 2.1.1 (38), DiskGraph shows the result only partly.
macOS Mojave 10.14, iMac Late 2012.
This issue has been solved in the recent update.
As mentioned in my App Store review your app requires access to my contacts and calendar when scanning my user folder. This should not be required to get the files sizes and leaves a bad taste because data security. I’m not scanning the „Macintosh HD“, just my own user folder! (Mojave)
This is a security feature in macOS 10.14 Mojave which is automatically triggered when scanning your home folder.
Scanning my home folder, the progress indicator gets stuck at 3.3%. After a while it completes and shows the results. But the feeling is pretty weird, because it looks like it is not responding while scanning.
The scan progress being „stuck“ is normal behavior. When you scan a folder, there is no efficient way of estimating how long the scan will take or the total number of files contained in the folder hierarchy. The approximation that Disk Graph and many other apps adopt works by splitting the total percentage evenly etween the files of a folder, which means that if most files are concentrated inside some deeply nested folders the progress will apparently be stuck. Unfortunately there is no workaround.
If you scan the whole Macintosh HD (which has the HFS+ filesystem), the progress will be much more precise since the total number of files is known.
Since the last update of DiskGraph, the percentage and labels are no longer readable. OSX 10.12.4 (16E195), DiskGraph Version 1.4 (28). Running on MacBook Pro 15“ (Retina, Mid 2012).
This issue appears to happen only on Macs with Retina display. An update is on the way.
