Title: Show formula based categories in categories panel
Post by: Carlo Didier on November 07, 2014, 03:32:51 PM
It's already nice to be able to see the data driven categories, but I can't see the categories that are formula based. In a sense, this makes the categories panel incomplete.
So I would like to have the option to also see formula based categories.
(I'm talking about the categories panel showing the assigned categories for files, not the other categories panel with the same name ...)

It would be very expensive to calculate this. IMatch would have to find all categories with a formula. Then calculate the formula and check if the selected file is included by that formula. I have a reason for not doing this, or not allowing color-coding for formula-based categories.

Yeah, I feared there'd be something like that. Still wanted to ask. Never give up hope  :)
