Tag change via scripting?

Post by kartal »

Hi

Is it possible to create some kind of tag changer via scripting? For example I would like certain files that has changed after certain dates to be blue? Would that be possible? I just do not have alot of time to dig in to scripting now I just would like to know if such thing is possible.


thanks

Tags should not be used for this. I would do this with a Color Filter based on Modified Date. Of course such a filter does not exist yet. So this is a wish. :)

Don, that would be a great addition. The reason I was asking is that I want to use Xyplorer as a simple project manager. I sometimes save files in multiple versions with nice names but even that is not the greatest solution, until I move them to revision folders. So the way I was thinking is that if there is a never version of the same file name scheme for example all the others will be grayed out thus I would know it is time to move some files to proper places. I would not want Xyp to move stuff for me until we prove some concepts here but visual feedback is always welcome. I think other people could benefit out of this method as well.

I personally even would not mind to invoke it via shortcuts for now. I think regular intervals should be kept for later, at least to improve performance for now.
