Mark / Filter Favorite files / user defined

Post by FrankBKK »

Would be more than nice if there would be an option to mark any file so you can set filters on these kind of files.

Similar to XY Favorite Files - but I dearly miss to filter / highlight these favorites in normal browse mode

If you ignore XY's own favorites feature and instead use tagging to mark your favorite items then you could use Color and Visual filters to mark/filter them.

Unfortunately, this approach will not allow you to mark favorite folders within the tree, so you may want to continue using Favorite or Highlighted Folders or Boxed Branches as well:

In the above I've tagged my favorite items with 'favs' and also added 'Gifts' to my highlighted folders list using the same color as the displayed color filter definition.
