Change background when filter is active

oh, how many's the time I have moved away from a directory when my files weren't in there - only to find out later a filter was still active!

Is there a way to e.g. change the background colour when a filter is active?

Thanks,
Ray Hyde

You can't make filters trigger a background image change.

Alternatives are:

[ul][li]Making something appear (e.g. in bold red) on the status bar when items are hidden.



[/li]
[li]Showing the filter on your toolbar so you can see when it's set and what to.

[/li][/ul]

Thanks Leo,

I've found how to do that. Now I have to trust myself not to overlook that little thingy at the bottom.

Cheers,
Ray
