They are also displayed in the single-paned flat view. The file list displays the following information about each directory or file:

You can sort the list of subdirectories and files alphabetically by name or attribute, from smallest to largest (or reverse) by size, or chronologically by date modified and change the order of the name, size, attributes, and date columns in the tree view and the flat view.
