Help using folder formats

Help & Support
1

Hello,

I need some help using folder formats.

I use them to change background color of FTP folders (so that it's easy to spot when i'm changing something online)
it's really great...

I also use them to color the background of a zip file

I'd like to add a nice dropbox icon to the background when i'm inside the dropbox folder.
i've used the wildcard path format with regex (C:\Dropbox\*), and it works well except for the fact that it supersedes the zip "folder type format"

Do you have any idea how to cumulate the two formats or to change the order used ?

As an aside, that should be C:\Dropbox\.* as a regex or C:\Dropbox* as a wildcard.

Use bC:\Dropbox\.*[/b] as the regex to prevent it from matching folders inside zip files.

Breaking down: (?!.*.zip(\|$))

(?!xxx) means the the overall regex will not match if "xxx" matches. ("Negative lookahead assert.")

.*.zip is just regex's convoluted way of writing *.zip in normal wildcards

(\|$) says it wants either a \ or the end of the string after the .zip, so it matches "cat.zip" and "cat.zip\dog" but not "this.is.not.a.zip.file"

Many thanks Leo for your help and all the explanations, it works.

i've just changed :
(?!..zip(\|$))C:\Dropbox\.
to
(?!..zip(\|$))C:\Dropbox.

so that it also works for the dropbox root.
