Question about column coloring

bulldogmo · 03-12-2012, 11:21 PM

Is there a way just to highlight one word in the tag section. Example: I want to have the tag "Fantasy" a certain color, not all of the tags turn that color if fantasy is there.

Everything I have tried turns them all that color, instead of the one word I want.

thanks for any input

No. Coloring rules affect the entire cell.

As that question is answered, I'll just pop on here and ask this:

Is there a rule I could set to turn all the rows a set colour, instead of doing them individually?

Again, no. A color rule is tied to a column.

Dam, thought so, thanks.

That's defiantly something for the suggestion box then.

Changing the colour of an entire column, even if its just via a right click colour selection, would be real nice, very useful to mark a book entry, that you want to temp highlight.

Even if it's just background colour..

Probably not possible with this platform though, without lots of work.

Would look nice though....

I desperately second this request.

Search Highlighting mode does this (just not permanently).
authors:Jones
now all title ROWS for Jones will appear highlighted
