Total Commander

I have a lot of file type based coloring defined
but sometimes I want a clear display without all this colors.
Please provide a new internal command to toggle this function.
I propose
cm_ToggleDefineColorsbyFileType

I guess taking into account the dark mode... cm_SwitchDarkmode ...

Of course, the new toggle has nothing to do with dark mode.
Each mode has its default, so this should not be an additional problem.

And more ?:
There also should be an internal command that, based on actual file under cursor, add/remove the file type (or file/folder name ?) to list of types <-> color
Something like : cm_ToggleAssociateColorbyFileTypeFromSelectedFile + as parameter, the "Define color by file type" saved name
- If already set, remove the file type to associated color
- If not set, associate the file type to color

(I'm used to set (add/remove) my file types/names via the Load/Save Searches, and then assign a color to it... but it's quite not an easy way to do it)

Temporary solutions:
I have a wdx script winscriptadv not_colorized.vbs the script just check the existence of a file in %USERPROFILE%. You can Addapt as you which.. I have made on top of color definition an expression that use the wdx script and set default color ! (it capture and stop all subsequent colors definitions)
Then i have a batch script to create/rename or delete/rename this file. I call this batch in a em_command that do the toggle and refresh panel.

You can also use same technique to disable coloring on specific folders using the file path inside wdx...

Added, thanks for the suggestion!

2ghisler(Author), thanks for adding!
This is much better than scripting solutions.
