Highlight Colors

Could you make three-button buttons work with the toggle button highlight, for all the buttons please.

Clock

For my little clock button I have the left click set to toggle my date columns.
Right click toggle my age columns. But with right click I don’t get a highlight.

Would be nice for us to choose colors; what button press highlights what color. A reminder to us that we have something currently active.

Also nice if modifier keys would work too. (Ctrl + left click = red. Shift + left click = orange, etc.). Or even GIFs or repeating animations. A slowlly blinking light on some things would be neat.

In the next beta we'll make the "Dynamic icon/label from child buttons" option apply to colors as well as labels/icons.

Sweet. Another W for the best file manager. :hugs:

I'd be interested to try a button like that, would you be willing to share it here? :slightly_smiling_face:

This button might help until the new functionalities are available:

First button script:


@iconp:/iconsets/Toolbars/Symbols/clock_dark.png#0,Set COLUMNSTOGGLE=modified;!Set HIDEEXT=toggle, invert


@toggle:= ( IsChecked("Set COLUMNSTOGGLE=modified") || IsChecked("Set HIDEEXT=toggle, invert") )


Set COLUMNSTOGGLE=modifieddate(1+sizeauto)
Set COLUMNSTOGGLE=modified(1+sizeauto)


@if: Set DUAL=On

Set FOCUS=toggle

Set COLUMNSTOGGLE=modifieddate(1+sizeauto)
Set COLUMNSTOGGLE=modified(1+sizeauto)

Set FOCUS=toggle

The date columns altogether or just the three-button colors?
For the colors we have to wait a little bit, until the next beta.
This guilotane workaround looks like it inverts the dark mode icons, pretty smart. But my columns isn’t in with it. I will have to post all the evaluator columns here too.

For now if you want the ages columns they are here:

Which reminds me:

With the evaluator columns, “date accessed” is missing a graph option. ?
