P: Color collections and collection sets to simplify navigation & cataloging

Je trouve que c'est dommage que les couleurs associées aux dossiers soient les mêmes que celles associées aux photos !
J'utilise les couleurs pour distinguer l'état de développement des photos, donc une couleur verte par exemple pour un photo, signifie ok pour utilisation, ce ne sera pas ok pour associer ce statut à un dossier complet, A une collection oui, mais à un dossier non, je ne vais pas déplacer mes images pour les déposer dans un dossier spécifique à cet état de ma photo, pour moi ce comportement est illogique dans l'exploitation de la base de donnée, puisqu'il correspond à un statut !


I think it's unfortunate that the colors associated with the folders are the same as those associated with the photos!
I use the colors to distinguish the state of development of photos, so a green color for example for a photo, means ok for use, it will not be ok to associate this status with a complete file, A collection yes, but to a folder no, I will not move my images to place them in a folder specific to this state of my picture, for me this behavior is illogical in the exploitation of the database, since it corresponds to a status!

Exactly. I take my best images from Folders and create a Collection from these such as Portfolio, Travel etc. Enabling color coding for Collections would complete a request that’s been running for seven years.

Bhakti -This is progress but incomplete. Just as you can color code a Folder, we need to be able to color code collection sets and collections.  This was all part of the original request.  Right-clicking on a collection or a collection set, to color-code those items, just as one can now do on Folders - and enabling filtering and searching - is what is needed to complete this feature.  Thanks for the progress.

I changed the status back to "no status" and the title to mention just collections and collection sets, so it's clear that part of the feature request is still outstanding.

Exactly how I'm using it too 🙂

Well - no, NOT COMPLETELY.  Folders now have color labels - thank you for that - but, gee, what about Collection Sets and Collections.  It's exactly the same concept and for all the same reasons as you want to be able to color code folders - to, among other things, help track the editing process precisely what collections can be used for. Kind of obvious - at least to me.  And the title of this issue includes color coding Collections!
