Are your files comfortable, cozy or compact?

Three options to display your Google Drive files

Did you know you can adjust how your Drive files are displayed on your screen? Google Drive offers a "Density" setting that allows you to adjust how your files and folders are displayed on your screen, which can be especially useful when switching between different screen sizes like a laptop and a larger monitor.

1. Comfortable: This is the default setting, giving more space between your files and folders.
2. Cozy: This reduces the spacing a little, allowing you to fit more items on the screen without crowding.
3. Compact: This packs the items tightly together, fitting the most files and folders on the screen.

How to change the density setting in Google Drive:

1. Click the Settings cog wheel in the top right corner
2. Under Density, select Comfortable, Cozy, or Compact
