Total Commander

Hi,

Sometimes I give files a File Comment (Ctrl-Z). Of course, later on I don't remember which files carry a comment. The entries in a file list don't show the presence of a comment. I have to hover over the files (slow) to pop up the tool tips.

It would be great to have a visual cue on file entries carrying comments. This could be a special overlay icon, a special font, a special coloring scheme, or even an extra column.

This would be very helpful.

This is already possible. You can switch to comment mode with Ctrl+Shift+F2 to see all comments. You can also create a custom columns view that contains the field [tc.comment]. Maybe even Define colors by file type is possible, although I remember some difficulties checking for empty field values.

Regards
Dalai

Setting the font color for files with comments as described in viewtopic.php?p=337415#337415 works for me Thank you very much.

There is a 'fly in the ointment' (my de-en dictionary ): since I already use coloring for several file types it is difficult to find another color that's conspicuous. Also the color for commented files overrides any other color. But I can live with that.
