Folder Colors using Wildcards

Help & Support
1

Hi,

i have severl folder starting with the letters "ML" like MLtest, MLwhatever.
So i was trying to colorize any Folder beginning with the letters "ML". I made a Wildcard label assignment for Folders only containing "ML#" but the folders starting with ML dont get colored anyway.
I also tried using the regex option with the expression ML* but then much more folders gets colorized even when they don't start with ML (like Temp). I also tried something like ^ML* but then nothing gets highlighted.

What am i doing wrong?

Thanks a lot and kind Regards

Kornelis

The wildcard string is matched against the whole path, not just the last component of the path. So if you want to match folders beginning with ML, you would either use "\ML" in standard wildcards, or "\ML.*" in regex, and set the type drop-down to Folders only.

That was the Trick :slight_smile:

Thanks a lot :slight_smile:
