Styles of multiple matching Label Filters aren't merged

I just played around with different label filters and I noticed that the styles of multiple matching filters are not combined (even if they are not conflicting).

Example:

Filter A)
All files that have been modified within the last 1 day.
-> GREEN BACKGROUND

Filter :sunglasses:
All files larger than 1 GB.
-> FONT STYLE BOLD

In this case the files are either green or bold but particurlarly recent files larger than 1 GB are not green and bold.

Since the filter dialog already provides transparent as undefined color I propose to introduce gray buttons for undefined state also to allow merging the labels unless they are not conflicting (in which case the result is unpredictable).

They aren't supposed to be merged.

Ok, I currently have 4 different label filters that are not conflicting. Thus I think a possible solution would be to create all 16 permutations of applicable filters in a way that each filter excludes all (partially matching) variants by using the complex boolean operators.

You could also use the tags, which will allow multiple findings.

What do you actually mean by using tags?

We can give keywords or tags to many files or folders. If you have unique tags for your stuff, you can filter by more than one keyword, as a near equivalent to
what you asked for. The main difference is the visibility. You can recognize colors quicker than the keywords in a column.

I like to set tags directly by using an input window:

SetAttr META "tags:{dlgstring}"

Sorry, i see the problem, you can´t filter the tags by age. :frowning:

Any progress here?
Do you consider adding some kind of label filter merging or prioritizing as described in different topic?

I would prefer merging at first glance. But I'm not sure if it's easy or even possible to make.

Anyway, I would like to have an option to indicate that file was modified within nn hours - by changing icon color.
And mark files manually by changing their font color / background / style.

How does DOpus calculate priorities when several label filters match the same file or folder? Maybe that could temporarily help maintain labels, without the need to make them all mutually exclusive.

(Of course this doesn't solve the problem with manually labeled files.)

I don't know, but it's better to make the labels mutually-exclusive than to worry about which order they're tested in (which might change in the future).
