Show color labels in filebrowser
« on: May 30, 2006, 11:10:57 AM »

I am very happy with this program! Thank you!

Is it possible to show those colored labels from the finder? I work with a lot of folders and mark some with color labels. It would be nice...

Thank you!

Sure. I had another request for this not so long ago.

It's quite trivial to add, although there is one downside:

Yummy currently uses the same label coloring mechanism to denote certain file/folder characteristics, for example if you use Filters then items which are excluded by the filters are labeled in red. Similarly, using the Search facility, items matching the search criteria are labelled in green.

Since there's no good alternative (at the moment) to indicate Filtered/Search matched items as well as maintaining the Finder label color, I proprose that Finder label colors will only show up when Filters and Search is not being used.

If this sounds reasonable, I can most likely implement the required changes for the 1.5.1 update I'm working on.

Wow, fast response :-)

Hey, yes this would make me happy and i hope some other customers too!
I did not use those filters before, this is an interesting feature i will try in the future.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Is it possible to support Finder Smartfolders too? I use them a lot...

Finder labels are now supported in v1.5.1 ... coming Real Soon Now™ Smiley

Smartfolders - I'll take a look. This probably won't be so easy, though, so it's unlikely for a 1.5.1 release
