hi folks!
I created rules which search for (extension) "bmp" AND filesize exact (f.i.) 25KB, 51KB, 308KB ...
There are 5 such rules which different filesizes, which should sort these Pics into different folders depending on the filesize.
Even when a file is exact (measured by MacOS, file-information) the rule doest work. ("size is...")
But when I write the rule .... "size is less than 27KB" (the exact filesize of 25 plus 2) and the next rule "filesize under 55 (51 plus 4) this works. But only if I manage to sort out in this special order from the smallest to the biggest filesize.
Is the way Hazel measures the filesize a different one as MacOS?
kind regards
Sandro

Where exactly are you getting your filesize info?

... in the Finder (MacOS), right-click - Information:

That's not precise enough. For example, if it's 25,392, it will still show up as 25K but still not be equal to 25K.

You really should be using ranges or, if the size is consistent down to the byte, the actually amount in bytes.
