Catalog: include item-count in category-title?

[MBaas]

I bet this is possible, so I've not placed this thread in wishes! ;-)

I have a category inside my catalog which acts like a ToDo-List, it is linked to a Paper-Folder with a list of files I need to work on. As I do my thing I clear them from the list. To get an easier estimate of what I have to do (the list is long!) I thought it would be neat if the caption of the category could include a count of the items in it - how can I do that?

How can a category itself be linked to a paperfolder?

In Description:

Code: Select all

paper:{NameOfFolder}

Nothing happens when an existing paper folders name is put there (that contains existing content). Apart from that, categories itself don't support scripting so I guess the answer is: no

Hmm, what I saw was that the content of the paper-folder appeared in this category. It's not synced though - I wish it was...
And just to be sure we have no misunderstandings, here'c the properties-screen of that category:
