Label Column Question

Good afternoon all,
I am starting to use labels in addition to my tags. I am finding them incredibly easy and powerful to use. Is there a setting/tweak that I am missing that would make "Label Column (symbol)" fill the column space like it does when using "Label Column (caption)" ? When using the symbol, it's too small. When using the caption, it's perfect; however, I don't really need (but could live with it) the name of the color.

Before (using Symbol) :

Trying to get this :

Instead of this :

You mean something like this?

Code: Select all

Snip: CustomColumn 1

          case $label LikeI "orange":
              return '>draw.bar, 100, F6AB46, F6AB46';
          case $label LikeI "purple":

Another option you could use is renaming the labels to just a space character or multiples of, that is if the actual names weren't important to you, and then leaving the coloring set to (caption), that way you could still set labels via right clicking the label column, which isn't possible the way highend has suggested, also you need to refresh the list to see label changes if you use that method too.

Thank you both for your suggestions. For now, I am using the one pictured in P2 (full size w/caption included). Maybe Don will see this and add a "full size" option w/o the caption displayed (doing so would round-out all the possible display options).
