Coloring by filename

[bogordo]

I need different colors for "G" and "A" files, i could create a search to coloring "2101_G*.*" and "2101_A*.*", this works, but in different projects the "2101" changes so i would need to create again and again with 2101, 2103.

I tried creating a custom search for "_G*.*" but does not work, any clues? with regex maybe?

Another option is to create a Search for "comments" but my comments are numbers, can i specify for "G" files as comments with only "two digits", for "A" three digits...??

2101_G.01.01_name1.doc
2101_G.01.02_name2.doc
...

2101_A.01.02_name3.doc
2101_A.01.02_name4.doc
...

Code: Select all

*_G*

should work. If you want to narrow this quite broad search term down more you could use something like this RegEx

Code: Select all

^\d{4}_G\..+

or

Code: Select all

^\d{4}_G.+

or something similar, depending on actual filenames.

Hi,

Is there any way of restricting this only to Files, right now is affecting Files and Folder...

Thank you,

Check "Attributes" and uncheck "Directory" on "Advanced" tab when you define find conditions.

Hi again, could i prevent PDF files to be colored? or said differently: could i only color DWG extension files?

[Gral]

Code: Select all

*_G* | *.pdf

or

Code: Select all

*_G*.dwg

(if we still talk about first question too)
Part after | is for exclusion.
