I hate the new tags in Mavericks, need coloured folders!!

Is there a way to return the colour folders when using the new tags like the old behavior of labels? These new circle thingees are too small and barely noticable.

And you know this how? You are familiar with the Mavericks complex coding?

Not meaning to be snarky Pete, I know this because the hilighted file name still appear in many file requesters. I will try and find an example and psot a pic.

I found the example. This is the Quicktime 7 save dialogue running in Mavericks.

Pontotoc Peg puts it well. Standing still with an old OS is not advisable.

Why not? Snow Leopard (10.6.8) is still oe of the most popular OSXs for example. Mountain Lion is barely any different to Mavericks. You have updated within a week of release without waiting to read reports of changes, problems, benefits, etc. You say that you are actually depressed over the loss of a feature in Mavericks, yet in the same breath say that you have to update (within a week) because standing still is not advisable? Not advised by who?

In my particular line of work, it is not advisable.

Yes, it looks like the recomends for XtraFinder and TotalFinder were deleted.


Although these two programs do not currently support the feature we want, I am betting that these guys, or some other third party, will have this feature reimplimented within a week.

I presupe they're refering to point 2.6.2 of the Terms of Use here https://discussions.apple.com/static/apple/tutorial/tou.html


Any reference, including a link, to a commercial item that is not directly related to a relevant technical support question or answer. For example: "This post created by Super Post Creator."

I don't see how recommending contacting the makers of 2 applications that are in some way related to helping the OP out with their questions constitutes as advertising.
