Color filter for folder names

Post by Patchesweaver »

I'd like to color the names of folders (or, ideally, bold them) that contain a special character (e.g. ■).

What value can I use in the color filter settings to do this. Thank you in advance.

PS. Ideally, I'd like to have something similar to syntax highlighting that highlights/colors specific parts of a folder name based on its value (e.g. Is a number, date, etc.).

T:dir:*■* or T:name:*■*

... highlights/colors specific parts of a folder name ... no, that's not planned ATM.

Thank you for answering and for letting me know the syntax highlighting-like functionality isn't planned at the moment.

For whatever it's worth, I've attached an image showing the varied text color for a section of a folder structure I'm working on... an example just in case you're ever interested.

Thanks again.

I apologize for the multiple responses. Is bold or italics for a folder name something that might be possible in the future with a color/formatting filter?

Thanks again.

Not impossible, but also not planned.
