The Disk Usage Analyzer icon. The MATE Disk Usage Analyzer, found at Menu > System Tools > MATE Disk Usage Analyzer, is a graphical tool for analyzing how your storage media is being used. It can scan the entire file system on a disk or in a specific folder. It provides a graphical treemap window for each selected disk or folder.

Note

Your first MATE menu choice depends on which of the Panel Layouts you have selected.

If you chose the default Familiar (Ubuntu-MATE) Layout, the first menu item is Menu. It is also the first menu item for Contemporary Layout, Redmond Layout, and Pantheon Layout. Applications is the first item for the Traditional Layout. The Netbook Layout, Mutiny Layout, and Cupertino Layout have no label and simply display the MATE logo to represent the menu.

The Disk Usage Analyzer window.

The Disk Usage Analyzer window contains the elements listed in the sections below.

Menu Bar

The menus on the menubar contain all of the commands you need to work with the disks and file system in MATE Disk Usage Analyzer. Note, if you have chosen a layout that uses the Global Menu, the menubar items will be displayed in the Global Menu rather than within the MATE Disk Usage Analyzer window.

Toolbar

The toolbar contains icon buttons that represent a subset of the commands that you can access from the menubar.
