Define colors by file type
With this dialog box you can define different colors for different file types, e.g. one color for ZIP files, one for folders, etc. You have the same possibilities as for the file selection using the "+" key on the numeric keypad. This dialog box can be reached through Configuration - Options - Colors - Define colors by file type.
Field Description
File types This list shows the already defined file types in their associated color. The sort order defines the priority of the filters. Example: If you have defined one color for ZIP files, and another for files with 'read only' attribute, then Total Commander will use the filter which comes first in the list for ZIP files with 'read only' attribute.
By double clicking on a file type or pressing the space bar, you can modify an already defined file type and its associated color.
Add... Creates a new entry in the list. You will first be asked for the file type, and then for the associated color.
Edit... Edit the selected filter.
Delete Removes an entry from the list.
OK Saves the changes and closes the dialog box.
Cancel Closes the dialog box without saving the changes.
