Hmm, so at the moment one can (if I'm not mistaken) :
[Under Dolphin/KDE]
- assign tags to files / folders
- search tags / use virtual folders
- select coloured alternatives of folders icons (one by one)
Apps can set emblems (i.e. NextCloud)
[Other file managers]
(i.e. Nemo) enable to do some of those actions more easily :
- right-click / multi-select to set coloured icons
- setting emblems (several clicks away / one by one though)
[On the Mac]
it seems you can choose coloured LABELS
I think the current situation on KDE is quite advanced, but probably not suited
to the average user.
1) Coloured icons are not easily discoverable and need several clicks.
2) And you can not choose coloured icons for *files*
2b) this would be worked-around by implementing coloured *labels*
3) Emblems cannot be set through Dolphin
4) a "regular" user will never make proper / efficient use of tags & virtual
folders. This is useful and powerful but too long / complicated.
The average user should be able to set colours (or common emblems ?) in 2
clicks and apply those to both folders & regulars files (if needed, several at
a time). I saw a teacher using those on a Mac to very quickly identify which
homework he had corrected or not or partly. Results appear instantly and
setting coloured labels is very fast.
Well, that's yet another spoiled user suggestion :-)
Cheers !
